Roads and highways

The quality of a country’s road network is a reflection of its prosperity. Roads are indispensable for our economic and social interactions. Road users must be confident that they can use the roads without obstruction, comfortably, and safely. The road infrastructure must enable the undamaged transport of goods within a reasonable timeframe. Because roads, especially in the Netherlands, are often located in areas with dense development, the inconvenience caused by the road to nearby residents must be kept to a minimum.

The road authority has the important task of maintaining the road network. To do so, it needs, among other things, a road network that strikes a balance between desired performance, costs, and environmental impact.

The road authority must also have a clear understanding of how the condition of the infrastructure is evolving so that it can implement the right maintenance and reconstruction measures at the right time. Kiwa Infra has been supporting road authorities in these activities for more than 60 years.

Kiwa Infra employs a large number of specialized road engineering consultants and laboratory technicians. Thanks to our size and many years of experience, we can assist you with virtually any questions you may have regarding road infrastructure.
