CARIBBEAN CLIMATE RESILIENCY COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE - Roundtable 3

Solutions to management of pavement assets in the Caribbean

Once again, the Caribbean Climate Resiliency Roundtable webinar, where like-minded professionals and transport officials involved in the Caribbean communities collaborated on climate resiliency issues and solutions and shared and learned diverse knowledge for the region’s benefit.

Representatives from various island countries provided insights into current solutions for others to learn from. Participants appreciated that there are similarities across the Caribbean and that there is room for greater collaboration.

There is no replacement for knowledge share and experience, which the panellists well demonstrated: Dr. Lior Asaf, Water Resources Consulting, Konsta Mikael Sirvio SirWay Ltd., Asset Management for St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Laurence Bridgmohan BSc, MSc (UWI), REng (BOETT), MAPETT, PMP Beyond Engineering Limited, moderated by Zeevik Halber, CEO at AnyWay Solutions and hosted by Magid Elabyad, IRF Senior Vice President.

Key discussion topics:

Each speaker will presented their topic and key issues regarding pavement assets and resiliency needs.

  • What are the challenges related to road asset management
  • What areas are vulnerable to climate risks, including hurricanes and flash flooding causing landslides and rockfalls?
  • Where is there room for improvement or areas for regional collaboration?
The Caribbean Climate Resiliency Community of Practice Round Table Series was created to engage with the Caribbean Region as a platform to help prosper knowledge sharing and create resilient pavement infrastructure.
