CAMBER – The Connected and Adaptive Maintenance for Safer Urban and Secondary Roads aims to develop and demonstrate workable solutions to integrate asset and safety management for urban and secondary road networks by using real-time data to inform road maintenance systems and implementing cost-effective, proven interventions.

Performance metrics derived from next-generation data sources will provide road managers with up-to-date information on safety issues, road damage, and maintenance or upgrade needs. Data from telematics, vehicle and smartphone sensors, and road user feedback will inform safety assessment models, identifying necessary measures to ensure safe roads for all users, including minority groups with specific design needs, such as powered two-wheelers.

CAMBER will address these challenges through research and testing of cost-effective safety interventions and low-impact maintenance techniques, including those tailored for vehicles with advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS).

These approaches will be demonstrated across urban and rural road networks in five European countries:

• Greece,
• Portugal,
• The Netherlands,
• Croatia,

CAMBER’s economically viable solutions and new insights will be shared through established networks to guide European road managers, policymakers, and industry in making informed decisions and investments for safer, more efficient road maintenance.

COMPONENTS

The CAMBER project focuses on five priority ‘components’:

1. Safety-integrated maintenance systems and processes
2. New-generation data source
3. Digital twins
4. ADAS performance
5. Low-cost safety interventions
