Canal & River Trust (C&RT), the charity responsible for managing canals, rivers and locks of England and Wales, has installed more than 500 Smart Dashcams across its fleet.
Teletrac Navman, a Vontier company and connected mobility platform for industries managing vehicle and equipment assets, is boosting safety for C&RT by deploying AI-enabled Smart Dashcams across its fleet.
The unified view of video and telematics data will empower C&RT’s fleet managers to enhance driver safety.
This happens in real time, through in-cab notifications where the driving behaviour is high-risk or being repeated, and through informed coaching at a later point, enabling C&RT to recognise and reward safe driving.
Fleet manager at The Canal and River Trust, Steve Mulvaney, said: “Our drivers are multi skilled operatives and tradespeople, and now also have access to formal driving training with the data that’s been unlocked for us.
“The cameras allow us to replay their own driving to them – whether good or bad, creating a meaningful and efficient training programme.
“There is nothing like seeing your own driving replayed to help recognise the potential risks.
“We’ve had a really positive response from our team – everyone is keen to improve and increase their own safety, but also the safety of others on the road.”
Achievements and innovations in road safety will be recognised and celebrated at the fourth annual CiTTi Awards on 25 November 2025 at De Vere Grand Connaught Rooms in London. Visit www.cittiawards.co.uk to learn more about this unmissable event for the UK’s transportation sector!
