In June 2018, RSSB launched a £300,000 call for research to support the development of novel ideas and innovative solutions as part of a longer-term vision for the development of an industry pathway to high value adhesion forecasting capable of providing the right information at the right time to the right people.

Three project teams have since presented on the 6th Sept 2019 showcasing their work at a Cross-Project meeting. Presentations can be found on SPARK and clicking on 'More' in the Resources section of the Wavecast webpage.
