Are you going to have a clear picture on your road conditions this winter?

Each year, 24% of weather-related vehicle crashes occur on snowy, slushy or icy pavement and 15% happen during snowfall or sleet*. To manage and clear the roads when necessary, road weather networks are typically equipped in stationary stations that report the road conditions from the place of installation – but the major unknown is the situation between one and the other station.

Maryland Department of Transportation has decided to go one step further and test mobile road sensors – MARWIS – to fill the data gaps and support decision making in winter maintenance to improved safety on Maryland roads. Are your roads ready for upcoming winter? Read the case study and see what’s in it for you.
