    Soft engineering techniques, used to prevent soil erosion and stabilise steep cuts and embankments, have allowed engineers to successfully widen the M1 motorway in the UK. Over the 50km length of the work (25km northbound, 25km southbound) on a busy section of the motorway near the city of Nottingham, a total of 48km of slopes had to be modified, split roughly between cutting and embankment. The UK Highways Agency requirements for the work meant that wholesale widening of the corridor was not possible: the

    The rapid increase in information availability is transforming the construction sector. Conventional methods used for sourcing geographic data based on maps and localised sampling meant that there was often a lack of accurate information relating to ground conditions at specific areas where work was planned, often resulting in unwelcome surprises for construction companies along with additional costs for projects.

    Sound absorption systems can cut traffic noise With traffic volumes increasing worldwide and highways having to be redesigned to minimise their impact on the environment, the industry has had to come up with new solutions that reduce the impact of roads. Highway noise is a major issue both in urban and non-urban locations so engineers have been busy developing innovative solutions that can help alleviate this problem. Durability and effective noise dampening properties are claimed for the new All Weather So
