<H3 CLASS="MsoNormal">What does the level crossing removal project of the future look like?</H3>
LXRA has a bold vision for how an accelerated use of technology can produce step-change improvements to enhance safety, improve resource availability, and reduce the cost of projects. The LXRA Research and Innovation team with the support of the Department of Industry, Innovation and Science Entrepreneurs’ Programme is looking to partner with industry to  progress this vision.
 
LXRA is considering a series of pilot projects with large technology companies to address these challenges. Small and medium sized enterprises are also welcome to take advantage of this opportunity to  investigate trial and deploy new and relevant technologies.
 
The purpose of this event is to identify technologies and solutions that can improve the delivery of LXRA projects, as well as the wider infrastructure construction industry. At this event you will have the opportunity to  share your capabilities and collaboratively develop ideas and solutions with key stakeholders from LXRA, the Entrepreneurs’ Programme and large communications providers including Telstra, Orange, Optus, Schneider Electric, Transdev and Huawei.
