Course Overview
A two-day course designed to explore the rapidly advancing field of Smart Roads, where traditional infrastructure meets cutting-edge digital technology. This course delves into how emerging innovations, such as AI, autonomous vehicles, IoT, and Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communication, are reshaping road design, traffic management, and user experience.
With a strong emphasis on safety, data-driven planning, and the transition toward sustainable, connected transport networks, the course is ideal for professionals involved in highway safety, civil engineering, transport planning, and policy development. It is particularly relevant for those looking to expand their knowledge of how technology is transforming the future of roads.
Candidates will engage with a mix of short lectures, videos, case studies and scenario-based quizzes. Key themes include real-time traffic monitoring, smart sensor integration, connected vehicle infrastructure, predictive maintenance, and the ethical and regulatory challenges of intelligent transport systems.
Aims and Objectives
The aim of the course is to give delegates a comprehensive understanding of how emerging technologies are transforming traditional road infrastructure into smart, adaptive systems that improve safety, efficiency, and sustainability for all users.
The course provides delegates from a range of professional backgrounds with up-to-date knowledge of key topics such as artificial intelligence, connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs), intelligent traffic systems, and real-time data applications. It highlights new approaches to road design and maintenance enabled by digital tools, and offers delegates the opportunity to network, share experiences, and explore practical applications of smart technology in both urban and rural contexts.
As the aim of the course is to remain current and forward-looking, the content will continue to evolve and may be subject to change in response to the latest innovations, research, and industry developments.
Certification
Delegates completing this course will receive a CPD certificate of attendance, recognised by both the IHE and CIHT.
