Abstract: Roads are the principal conduit for trade, industry, agriculture, and other forms of transportation as well as an essential means of communication between locations. Built roads require adequate maintenance to increase their lifespan and guarantee user comfort. The upkeep of road curbs and side-of-the-road drainage alleys is the subject of the study that was done. One of the frequent issues is standing water on the road's surface because of blocked drainage holes. This is because it has accumulated debris, dead leaves, and sand, all of which prevent water from flowing to the main drain. The old approach of using hands and brooms and a lot of labour is still used today to maintain road dams and drainage ditches. The problem statement led to an innovation to create and produce a tool called the SDm machine that can assist in addressing the issue of maintenance and cleaning of road bumps and drainage ditches effectively and efficiently. On roads near Shah Alam, workability testing of SDe machine products were carried out with an emphasis on the upkeep and cleaning of road bumps and drainage alleys. When the two maintenance approaches were compared, it was found that the SDe machine had a short maintenance time of 4 minutes per drain erong as opposed to the traditional method's 10 minutes. In conclusion, this SDm machine is very effective and suited for use in more systematic road repair operations, which also saves time and energy.
