Keeping the roads open during bad weather is critical for those managing the road networks.
With the variable weather the UK faces this can be a challenge during both summer and winter.
OpenRoad on the web is an online weather forecasting package that is designed to help minimise the effects of weather on the roads. By providing all your key road weather information in a clear format, it enables road decision-makers to do their jobs more easily, more cost-effectively and with greater confidence.
Clean, intuitive visualisation means you can find information easily and make faster decisions, something which is vital during changing weather conditions.
The summary page helps you to quickly identify hazards across your network. You can then zoom in to see the details for your region, hour-by-hour, overlaying weather animations and monitoring sensor observations.
