Abstract: In recent years, rapid population growth has exacerbated numerous challenges for urban areas and their inhabitants, particularly issues such as inadequate infrastructure and frequent waterlogging in underpasses. During heavy rainfall, these underpasses often become inundated, creating significant hazards for vehicles and exacerbating traffic congestion. The root of this problem lies in inefficient drainage systems and suboptimal designs for managing rainwater runoff.

To tackle these pressing issues, this paper proposes an IoT-based solution aimed at monitoring and managing heavy traffic in underpasses. The primary objective is to create a comprehensive framework that continuously tracks water levels in these areas. By leveraging IoT technology, this framework can activate warning signals and implement real-time traffic control measures, thereby mitigating the risks of waterlogging and alleviating traffic congestion.

This innovative approach not only provides a proactive response to the immediate challenges faced by underpasses but also lays the groundwork for a more sustainable and efficient urban infrastructure management system. By integrating IoT sensors and intelligent control systems, this framework seeks to enhance the resilience of underpasses against adverse weather conditions while improving traffic flow, ultimately contributing to safer and more livable urban environments.
