Services for Roads and Highways

Highway and road service maintenance is a vital investment in the state, city and municipal infrastructure. Detailed planning and multidisciplinary technical knowledge are essential to ensure compliance with various professional standards and regulations.

Government and transport authorities, developers and operators need to be aware of the regulated road service aspects including survey, investigation, designing, construction, environment, maintenance and safety. Structural damage that goes unnoticed can lead to safety risks and is costly to repair at a later stage.
