CAREC Institute Chai Talk: Revolutionizing Road Asset Management with AI

Event Overview
Efficient and resilient road networks are vital for economic growth, regional connectivity, and social progress—especially in the CAREC region, where roads are essential for cross-border trade and integration. Recognizing this, the CAREC Transport Strategy 2030 prioritizes Road Asset Management (RAM) to ensure safety, extend infrastructure lifespan, and optimize operational costs.

Traditional road management methods—such as manual inspections and reactive repairs—are no longer sufficient to meet today’s needs. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming RAM by enabling predictive maintenance, automated damage detection, and data-driven decision-making. For CAREC countries, these innovations lead to improved road safety, smarter resource allocation, and significant reductions in logistics costs.

AI-powered RAM equips transport authorities to forecast road failures, optimize maintenance schedules, and monitor conditions in real time using advanced technologies like drones and IoT sensors. These advancements strengthen infrastructure resilience and support more reliable, cost-effective transport networks across the region.
