Amey will work with the Scottish Transport Agency to inspect and improve all intelligent transportation systems, transmission buildings and related communication equipment.

Scotland Transport Planning

Amey is a British national highway service provider with more than 12,000 intelligent transportation system (ITS) assets in Scotland. In these assets, it will operate and maintain variable message signs, closed circuit television, roadside emergency phones, and various power sources and communications. Cabinet. Amey, who has been a supplier of ITS equipment maintenance to the Scottish Ministry of Transport since December 2004, said that the new contract is worth about 7 million euros per year and will start in March. Peter Anderson, managing director of Amey Transportation Infrastructure, pointed out that it will run for five years, with the option of extending it for another two years.

Amey has worked with the Scottish Transport Agency for more than 20 years to manage and maintain Scotland's hundreds of miles of highways and arterial road networks, and provide key consulting services such as asset management, design services and environmental management. The Scottish Transport Authority is part of the Scottish Transport Authority, which aims to minimize the impact of congestion, breakdowns and unforeseen events. The Scottish Transport Service provides passenger information to Scotland's main road network through what the agency calls a "monitoring, control and notification" process.

Traffic Scotland uses closed-circuit television, roadside hardware, communication with the police, weather forecast and major incident management services to monitor the network. All information collected through the monitoring process is processed in the Scottish Traffic Control Centre, which operates 24 hours a day. The traffic and travel information processed by the center is disseminated through the Scottish Transport website, the Transport Customer Service Hotline, the Scottish Transport Mobile website, the Scottish Transport Information Kiosk, and roadside variable information signs. In February 2021, Amey Consulting stated that it had designed the UK's first carbon-neutral road improvement project, the road resurfacing project in Cumbria, northern England.Editor/XingWentao
