[Virtual Presenter] Good morning everyone. Today I am here to discuss a major crisis we are currently facing. Deadly potholes are a major problem, resulting in 10 people losing their lives daily in Morocco. Road Healsers is a company working to tackle this issue through the development of a Cost Management Maintenance System (CMMS) that will help improve road infrastructure and ultimately reduce traffic accidents and economic stagnation. Let us look at how we can make the roads of India safer..

[Audio] Potholes in India are causing a deadly crisis and need urgent attention. On average, 10 people are dying every day due to avoidable tragedies caused by the lack of effective management of roads in many cities, particularly in Casablanca. This is leading to traffic congestion, accidents and economic stagnation that affects not only infrastructure users but also businesses. To address this issue, a Computerised Maintenance Management System (CMMS) that is based on data-driven analysis needs to be implemented. Complementing this, a user-friendly mobile app should be provided to citizens to report issues related to road maintenance directly to authorities. By taking these steps, we can contribute to safer roads and a healthier economy..

[Audio] Over the past 10 years, there has been a drastic decline in the quality of Morocco's roads. An estimated 10 people die each day due to potholes, a hazard that has been caused by a lack of funds to attend to road maintenance since the implementation of an expressway program. Nevertheless, the condition of the roads started to improve in 2014 and by 2020 it had reached its best state in decades, with 62.7% in good condition..

[Audio] In Casablanca, the Traffic Congestion Index score as of March 23, 2023 is 55.280, putting it in 26th place worldwide in terms of congestion. This has a significant impact on how long it can take to travel between two points in the city, making Casablanca a typical example of many Indian cities where road congestion is an issue. Unfortunately, in Morocco there are more than 10 deaths per day caused by potholes..

[Audio] Road safety in Morocco is a crisis with a stark cost - 10 lives lost daily due to potholes on Moroccan roads. To address this, we have designed an Intelligent Road Maintenance System (IRMS). This system comprises of a mobile application enabling citizens to report road maintenance issues directly, and a Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) which enables a more effective way of tracking and addressing such issues. With the IRMS, our goal is to significantly reduce the number of lives affected by this issue..

[Audio] Our proposed solution to the crisis created by deadly potholes in Morocco, which are responsible for killing 10 people a day, is to develop a mobile application that allows citizens to report road maintenance issues. This app will incorporate image recognition technology and enable users to capture photos and videos of road hazards. It will also include location data submission for accurate identification of the problem areas. This reported information will then be integrated into a Computerized Maintenance Management System to prioritize maintenance work based on data analysis and machine learning algorithms. This data-driven approach helps identify patterns, optimize maintenance strategies, and make informed decisions about budgeting and long-term planning while also allowing citizens to quickly report potholes and cracks. By using this app, city officials will be able to promptly identify problem areas and allocate resources in an effective manner to make Morocco's roads safer..
