Morocco is pioneering a novel sponge pavement designed to enhance water management and mitigate heat effects. Unlike conventional black asphalt, this innovative surface enables water to seep through, promoting natural cooling through evaporation when moisture exists. This initiative aims to bolster urban climate resilience and elevate the comfort of residents, with pilot projects underway in Marrakech and Agadir as part of a larger sustainable city initiative.
