Transportation

Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan’s ‘Healthy Streets’ approach strives to make London’s diverse communities greener, healthier and more attractive places to live, work, play and do business. Transport for London is helping meet this vision through their Asset Operations, looking after government assets on the streets, from lighting to trees. They continually assess assets and conduct surveys and reviews for improvement. Surveys include the Healthy Streets Assessment, capturing the real-life experiences of people walking and spending time on London's streets.  The results reveal areas of success and improvement, and the potential to add new green infrastructure.

In less than two months, Highways England developed an Esri ArcGIS web app in-house that gives its 4,700 employees a clear visual picture of all current and planned roadworks. The solution is now creating cost savings and operational efficiency improvements for Highways England, while at the same time improving journeys for road users and providing more transparent information for partners.
