Street works in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets will be optimised using new Mayrise software
In UK capital London, Tower Hamlets Council is implementing sophisticated computer software to improve the management and coordination of street works.  The internet-hosted 2606 Mayrise Street Works system from Yotta is allowing Tower Hamlets Council to respond to changes in street work legislation.

The advanced software will also help the council implement new working practices including mobile working and achieve efficiency gains through more effective inspection regimes and streamlined reporting. Mayrise Street Works was selected following a careful evaluation of a number of potential solutions, as it was deemed to be the most user-friendly.

The Street Works software is a complete solution for managing street work notices for both street and highways authorities and statutory undertakers. Handling the Street Works Register, National Street Gazetteer, inspections management and defect reporting, the system eliminates paperwork, ensures best practice and provides up to date information on the status of all works. The software also helps reduce the impact of roadworks, through the co-ordination and sharing of information between local authorities and utility firms.

Mayrise Street Works is available online: Mayrise Online also includes expert technicians who monitor the system around the clock ensuring data security and system performance. Existing users of Mayrise Online include Northumberland County Council, the London Borough of Sutton, 1146 Balfour Beatty Living Places, UK Power Networks and Powys County Council.
