Council considers road‑assessment software and hardware to modernize paving program

Manager Glister described a proposal to acquire Biolytics (also referenced as Violytics) software and two hardware packages to provide borough roadway condition assessments. He noted the borough used RoadBotics previously and that the market has shifted: RoadBotics was bought and discontinued and Biolytics offers a software/hardware approach the borough can operate internally. "It gives every road a rating between 1 and 5," Glister said, explaining the tool reduces subjectivity in paving priorities.
