Standing still in the infrastructure design space means falling behind. As an industry, we must be innovative and consider the future needs of all users.

It’s not enough to deliver in isolation – it’s crucial all stakeholder work towards supporting our communities and ensuring a sustainable built environment.

SYSTRA’s vision focuses on creating solutions that enhance urban mobility and improve quality of life.

Our specialist teams design and implement infrastructure that is resilient, environmentally friendly, and adaptable. By leveraging advanced technologies and fostering collaboration, we want to contribute to the development of smart cities and interconnected communities, ensuring accessibility and safety for all users.

Using Artificial Intelligence in address of road safety and infrastructure improvements 

Our projects help make a real difference in the real world.

The Department for Transport sponsored Transport Research and Innovation Grant has enabled SYSTRA to develop a machine learning application to mitigate road collisions in Great Britain. This application will aid Local Authorities, Highway Agencies and other transport body’s efforts to save lives, reduce injuries and support decision-making for infrastructure improvements; ultimately targeting a safer and more efficient transport network. 

Our Senior Consultant Angus Spence will be demonstrating the model’s capabilities as part of the Connected Places Catapult’s Transport Research and Innovation Grant Showcase fringe event at UKREiiF2025. 

The application demonstrates effective and pragmatic use of emerging technologies in development of demanded transport solutions.

Working across the public and private sectors, we have a track record of successful partnerships with government, transport authorities, organisations and regulators.
