Damaged Kerbs - Detection, Assessment & Road Safety

A broken kerb looks cosmetic. In practice it stops doing the three jobs it was built for: holding the pavement edge, directing water, and keeping vehicles where they belong. This guide covers what that actually costs you.

Topics Covered

• The three structural jobs a kerb does and what fails when it breaks
• How kerb damage accelerates pavement edge failure and drainage problems
• How AI detects breaks, displacement and missing sections from survey footage
• A severity table with repair priority for each damage level

Who It Is For

• Municipal engineers and urban road teams
• Maintenance contractors
• Asset management teams

A damaged kerb is not a cosmetic issue. It is a drainage failure and an edge failure waiting to happen.
