Highways

Roadside workers for highway service providers are often responsible for operating HGVs in high-risk conditions alongside fast-moving traffic. It’s also common for teams to work through the night or in harsh weather conditions when visibility is poor.

It’s not surprising that roadside work has been ranked as one of the most dangerous occupations. Over half of recorded incidents occur within the work zone and involve a moving vehicle. By leveraging the latest vehicle safety technology, organisations can take a proactive approach to keeping teams and other road users.

Challenges faced by the highways industry

Blind spots when reversing
Collisions with objects or people
Manoeuvring in tight spaces
Damage to parked vehicles
Poor visibility in adverse weather conditions
Targeted for false insurance claims of damaged vehicles or property
