Consequences

The biomimetic road surface technology offers significant positive consequences: 

• Enhanced road safety

• Reduced accidents

• Lower maintenance costs

• Environmentally friendly

• Prevents soil and water contamination from salt runoff

• Improves road longevity by reducing chemical and ice-induced damage

​

Potential challenges include

• High initial implementation costs

• Regulatory approvals for large scale adoption

• Possible wearing of pattern over time. Long-term durability testing needed

• Pre-fabricated stamping material compatibility and manufacturing.
