As part of its commitment to Djibouti Vision 2035, DPCR SA, which holds exclusive management of the corridor road network, has developed the DPCR CorridorVision AI project. This initiative aims to integrate artificial intelligence into road infrastructure management, covering planning, construction, maintenance, and infrastructure safety enhancement processes.
This ambitious project, aligned with DPCR SA’s mandate to rehabilitate, modernize, and maintain roads such as RN1, RN2, RN5, RN9, RN11, RN17, and RN19, incorporates advanced technologies to transform traditional road management methods into proactive and eco-friendly digital solutions.
Djibouti Ports Corridor Road SA and RapidCanvas have crafted an innovative strategy with the DPCR CorridorVision AI project, following the signing of a cooperation agreement in October 2024 in Djibouti. This project strengthens Djibouti’s role as a regional logistics and economic hub, enhances connectivity between strategic corridors, and facilitates smoother trade flows. By adopting advanced technologies and a sustainable approach, DPCR SA is modernizing road infrastructure management while reducing carbon footprints and maintenance costs.
The DPCR CorridorVision AI technology development model is a first in the corridor road sector in Djibouti and the region. It includes classifying and documenting road deterioration into categories such as deformations, cracks, displacements, and potholes, enabling more precise and efficient management. This innovative approach places Djibouti at the forefront of modernizing road infrastructure through cutting-edge AI integration.
