Built for the way highway projects operate.

Highway schemes stretch across miles. Different compounds. Different workfaces. Different contractors. Different constraints. The information already exists — it just sits in separate systems.

Chainage Structures Closures Traffic management Possessions Temporary works Compounds
What makes it different

Linear projects demand a different operational picture.

Unlike a single site, a highway scheme is not one place. It is a corridor. Work happens at chainage 2+400 while a structure is being poured at 8+100 and traffic management is being set at 11+900.

Background understands the scheme as one connected operational environment, not a set of isolated locations.

On a live highways project

Every finding points one person to one thing, while they can still do something about it.

None of these come from one source. They come from reading across them.

Attention Traffic management 40m
Lane closure live, nobody working inside it
TM plan: closure booked 22:00–05:00 for surfacing  vs  SightAgent + telematics: closure set, no plant, no crew — the possession is burning
Attention Public interface 1h
Mud tracked onto the live carriageway
CEMP: wheel wash before every egress  vs  SightAgent: loaded dumpers leaving the compound, wheel wash bypassed
Attention Programme today
Surfacing sequence slipping — the closure won’t hold
Programme: two nights booked for the lay  vs  Roller telematics: output down 30%, at this rate it needs three
Confidence Safety 2h
The closure was set correctly, and held
TM plan: cones, signs, taper as specified  and  SightAgent: matched the drawing, held all shift, no incursions
Ask the project

The questions a highways team actually asks.

Which closures need attention tonight?

Where are we losing programme confidence, and why?

Which structures keep creating delivery issues?

What did we learn on the last scheme that applies here?

Grounded in your project’s own record. Not general knowledge.

Scope

From one closure to an entire programme.

Whether you’re responsible for one night’s possession or a whole motorway programme, the operating model is the same. Only the scope changes.

Work package Project Programme Organisation

The questions change. The operating model doesn’t.

Better coordination builds better highways.

Background helps teams understand what matters while there is still time to protect the possession, the programme and the people working in it.

Next step

See it on a real gap in your own data.

Every feed in those findings already exists on your sites. Walk one from the feeds that produced it to the person who acted on it.

The feeds already exist Telematics, permits, programme, survey, cameras. Background reads across them — it doesn’t ask you to create anything new.
Routed to a named person Not a broadcast. The one finding that needs a decision, to the one person who can make it.
Recommends. People decide. The decision stays human. The responsibility stays human. The outcome stays human.
