Amey<\/strong> <\/a>will join with Arup<\/a> to deliver a Smart Motorway project in New South Wales<\/a>, making it the first of its kind in this region.<\/p>\n

The project, which will be named the M4 Smart Motorway<\/strong> will make use of intelligent technology to monitor traffic conditions, regulate congestion and react to incidents in real-time on the existing M4 Western Motorway. Another key objective is to increase traffic flow, with the aim of reducing peak travel times by up to 15 minutes and accidents by up to 30%.<\/p>\n

The Arup and Amey team began initially in England, bringing together Arup\u2019s technical expertise with Amey\u2019s operational management. This substantial knowledge, along with their shared expertise in local highways made them the perfect candidates to collaborate and secure the \u00a325 ($32.4m) million design package of the Smart Motorway Programme on the M1.<\/p>\n

The local team made use of the knowledge of their UK counterparts, with key international members joining the design team and attending interviews with Roads and Maritime NSW throughout the tender process.<\/p>\n

Nicola Hindle, Amey\u2019s Managing Director for Consulting & Rail said:<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause we design, operate and maintain complex transport systems, we really understand how assets behave over their lifetime, and this is crucial when you\u2019re working on infrastructure projects that will change the way people travel for decades to come.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u201cIt is rare that we get an opportunity to influence and shape a city and its transport systems as much as the M4 Smart Motorway will,\u201d said Ben Schnitzerling, Arup\u2019s Australasian Transport and Resources Leader. \u201cThe project is not only about the M4; it is about delivering cultural change to Sydney\u2019s road network now and into the future. We wanted to be a part of this project because if done right, it will be the blueprint for Sydney\u2019s future motorways.\u201d<\/p>\n

The commission covers all technology and civil works, ranging from detailed design through to construction support services, and is due to be completed in 2020.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
