Our differentiated offering inclusive of proprietary tools and AI-driven analytical frameworks, brings a unique perspective to solving the complicated challenges for National Highways and the millions of road users they serve every day.

This builds on Arcadis’ commitment to fostering innovative solutions and transformative outcomes across the National Highways network. A recent collaboration with MICHELIN Mobility Intelligence in Warwickshire County Council exemplifies this standard. Along the 36-mile Fosse Way corridor, substandard design, varying road users and other issues produced more than 100 crashes in five years. Arcadis and MICHELIN Mobility Intelligence harnessed cutting-edge data analytics to enhance road safety. The project focused on reducing collision and near-miss hotspots by analysing driver behaviour data, ultimately aiming to save lives. This programme recently received the distinction of being Highly Commended for the CIHT National Road Safety Award. Read more about this successful partnership here.
