Digital Transformation for Events & Temporary Occupations
Empowering councils to digitise event planning, road closures, temporary occupations, and public space management, all through one modern, GIS-powered platform.
GEO.works UK helps councils digitise the full lifecycle of events, road closures, and temporary occupations through one shared platform.
From small community events to large citywide celebrations, GEO.works gives teams real-time visibility of planned activities, conflict checks, traffic impacts, and required approvals.
Every application, review, and decision is managed in one place — with full audit traceability and live GIS insight.
Manual forms, email chains, and siloed systems slow event planning and create avoidable clashes. GEO.works UK streamlines the entire process, ensuring safer, faster, and more coordinated use of public space.

Highways and TM teams coordinate diversions with live conflict checks.
