WATER IN THE STREET

As the ground descends, the ground level gets closer to the groundwater and the dewatering depth decreases. During (heavy) showers, there is then a smaller capacity to collect the water underground. Therefore you are more likely to experience water in the streets. Due to climate change, peak showers occur more frequently. In addition, a smaller drainage depth increases the risk of ruts on the road. By measuring soil subsidence, you know how high the road will be in the future, and how great the dewatering depth and risk of flooding will be then. The same problem applies to drainage; the height of the ground level in relation to surface water.

HOME ACCESSIBILITY

If the road in front of the house subsides, it becomes more difficult to enter the house – a threshold is created. By measuring subsidence, you know how high the future threshold height will be and can take timely measures.

HARD-SOFT TRANSITIONS

Engineering structures (e.g., bridges, pipeline streets, etc.) are usually founded while the road leading up to it is not. This causes the road to sink and the structure to not. This differential settlement creates a bump in the road which can be dangerous to traffic and reduces driving comfort. By measuring, you will know when to raise.

IRREGULAR SETTLEMENT

Differences in soil composition under the road causes differences in settlement along the length of the road. This leads to bumps in the road and possible damage to the road surface. This causes reduced driving comfort which can be dangerous to traffic.

THE BENEFITS OF ROAD MANAGEMENT WITH SENSAR

You can maintain where necessary, defer where possible (prioritization).

You can target local inspections and measurements more effectively.

You will cause less inconvenience to residents and other road users due to less work on the streets.

You participate in better safety in public spaces.
