The IHE Scotland Branch would like to invite you to their next technical webinar on Tuesday 11th November 2025. 

Details

This presentation will explore the deployment of the SmoothRide workflow on trunk roads, drawing on the BEAR Dalwhinnie scheme as a case study. While the Dalwhinnie project has already gained significant visibility, the workflow has since been adopted by Amey in the South West, generating valuable operational insights and refinements.

The session will highlight these key learning points – focusing on how SmoothRide can be scaled and standardised to drive efficiency, improve surface outcomes, and de-risk delivery on the wider trunk road network.
