Building greener, resilient transport infrastructure: Innovating with artificial intelligence and digital twins in road design in Uzbekistan
This publication provides a case study of how digital tools can help optimize road design to strengthen climate resilience, safety, and efficient resource use. It explains how virtual models can be used to simulate and analyze the effects of potential design choices and future scenarios such as climatic conditions. It shows how greater use of data and digital solutions can help build greener, more durable transport infrastructure and bolster safety.
The project shows the potential of digital twin platforms to develop a comprehensive and innovative approach to road pavement design. This approach can support quick due diligence and can facilitate investments in lower-carbon, safer, circular, and more resilient road networks, in line with the Sustainable Development Goals.
