Welcome to the SRWR
Moving the SRWR Further Forward
On 1 April last year, Symology was delighted to welcome the Scottish community to the inauguration of the new
Scottish Road Works Register, with the statement "This is designed to meet the challenges of the future, including the
emerging effects of the Transport (Scotland) Act 2005."
The new system represented a massive step change. It introduced dramatic new technologies, including the full power of GIS,
with automated map-based coordination and work conflict detection facilities. Equally importantly, it was implemented on
time, and has been totally reliable in operation. In spite of the substantial learning curve for users, the new system
proved remarkably successful from the outset, and the extent of progress that has been made is a credit to the community.
Scotland can be proud of operating the most advanced system of its kind in the U.K.
At the outset, Symology stated the aim to continuously develop the SRWR, in a steady controlled way, and in partnership
with the Susiephone team, such that it can remain at the forefront of technology, and be highlighted as a model system
throughout the world. Many enhancements were implemented into the system during the course of the first year, and Symology
wish to express appreciation to all who contributed the ideas for improvement.
We are now introducing a new release, which represents the most significant step forward since the first implementation.
The new release has two main purposes:
- firstly, to provide major enhancements which have been requested both by community users and by the Scottish Executive. These include a completely new GIS mapping environment, with massively improved facilities and presentation standards.
- secondly, to incorporate the functionality required for the new TSA Code of Practice, which will be used for extensive testing. These facilities will initially be "hidden" within the live system, but can be switched on at the appropriate implementation date, to provide a smooth transition to the new rules.
