Engineers at the University of Leeds say they are developing technology to create fleets of robots which could detect and repair cracks in roads and fix pipes before they burst and maintain street lights.

Professor Rob Richardson, director of the National Facility for Innovative Robotic Systems at the university, said "Detecting faults and weaknesses early and then quickly performing smart repairs is the key."

He added " Workers currently carrying out repetitive and sometimes risky jobs on busy highways could be trained and supported into new roles managing or arranging robots' work functions."
