Opportunity overview

Transport for London (Asset Performance and Delivery team - Track) is looking into the possibility of changing the weed-killing approach by utilising technology, secured to a wagon, which identifies where there is a weed and only sprays weedkiller on weeds, resulting in reduced use of glyphosate weedkiller. Suppliers, who can offer this type of technology of alternative type, which could achieve the same or similar outcome, are invited to participate in market engagement.
