The Government have announced £5.4 million in funding to launch the Centre for Digital Built Britain at the ¹ú¼ÊÃ×À¼¶ÔÕó¿ÆĪ, which will help people make better use of cities by championing the digital revolution in the built environment. The Centre is part of a landmark government-led investment in growing the UK’s construction sector.
The Centre for Smart Infrastructure and Construction is building on advances in sensing technology to learn everything possible about a city’s infrastructure – its tunnels, roads, bridges, sewers and power supplies – in order to maintain it and optimise its use for the future.
Two new funding initiatives at the ¹ú¼ÊÃ×À¼¶ÔÕó¿ÆĪ will support the UK’s infrastructure and cities.Â
Funding announced by the Chancellor in last week’s budget is part of a wider £138 million programme to support the UK’s infrastructure and cities.
New resources designed to inspire the next generation of engineers by bringing authentic engineering challenges into the classroom have been launched today by the ¹ú¼ÊÃ×À¼¶ÔÕó¿ÆĪ.
