Roads and highways make for some of our most complex and challenging projects due to their sheer size, public impact, increased owner requirements, and need for extensive project teams.
To support post-COVID economic recovery, governments worldwide have earmarked $1.2T in infrastructure stimulus specifically for transportation,1 leading to a surge in opportunities for engineering service providers.
In pursuit of these government-funded infrastructure projects, firms are looking to and embracing technology and industry solutions for new and innovative ways of working. The processes for planning, designing, constructing, and delivering road and highway systems are evolving rapidly to adapt to industry demands.
To meet these new requirements, firms should leverage connected solutions such as digital project delivery, interoperable solutions, reality capture, and the integration of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS).
