The session will explain the approvals process, the role of approved survey technologies, and what authorities need to consider this financial year ending March 2027, when classified road condition data must be collected using an approved survey.
This webinar is specifically focused on what local highway authorities need to know and do, rather than providing a general technical overview of the standard.
