The flooding of roads during intense rainfall or extreme weather conditions is a significant issue, particularly in areas where drainage systems are inadequate. The challenge lies in designing roads using Industrialised Building System (IBS) techniques, where each segment includes built-in drainage channels beneath the surface. Integrating artificial intelligence (AI) to optimise drainage flow and construction processes adds complexity. Ensuring that the system is both cost-effective and sustainable while maintaining structural integrity under heavy rainfall requires overcoming technical, environmental, and financial obstacles.

This solution could significantly reduce flooding on roads, improving traffic safety and infrastructure resilience. The integration of AI and IBS will promote sustainable construction practices, enhancing long-term urban planning and minimising disruptions caused by extreme weather conditions.
