Nicknamed the “Octopus Truck,” this innovative cleaning vehicle uses eight robotic arms, each equipped with brushes and high-pressure water jets, to scrub tunnel walls and ceilings with precision.
Developed by Colas, the system takes inspiration from automated car washes but adapts the concept for large-scale tunnel maintenance.
What makes it especially eco-friendly is its ability to clean effectively without detergents, reducing environmental impact while still removing soot, grime, and built-up debris. The operation requires just two people: one to drive and another to control the robotic arms and cleaning tools.
Designed for efficiency, the Octopus Truck helps keep tunnels safer and clearer for drivers while streamlining maintenance operations. Learn more at Colas.co.uk
