Cities & Infrastructure: AI Roadmap to 2040

Three horizons. Concrete pilots. KPIs that prove it works.

Now (0–12 months)

  • Asset registry across power, water, transit
  • Outage and work order dashboards; priorities set
  • Citizen service routing with triage

Next (12–36 months)

  • Cross-utility coordination for dig/repair
  • Traffic signal optimization by corridor
  • Water leakage detection and prioritization

2030–2040

  • City-scale operations twin with resilience goals
  • Integrated planning across utilities

Architecture notes

  • Event bus + time-series; geospatial services; identity
  • Open data with privacy contracts; audit trails

KPIs

  • Time to repair; outage minutes; leak rate
  • Transit on-time rate; citizen response time

First pilots

  • Traffic signal optimizer on one corridor
  • Leak detection on a pressure zone

Risks & guardrails

  • Jurisdiction overlap; MOUs; data sharing agreements
  • Cyber risk; segmented networks; drills
