Abstract
This study systematically reviews and synthesizes existing literature on the vulnerability of Davao Citys road network to flooding and related environmental hazards. Urban flooding, driven by climate change and rapid urbanization, poses significant risks to road infrastructure, with potential disruptions to mobility, economic activity, and emergency responses. The review employs the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) framework to identify, screen, and evaluate relevant studies. Key factors influencing road infrastructure vulnerability, including urbanization, topography, climate change, and environmental data, are explored through a GIS-based approach. Additionally, the study assesses resilience strategies employed in similar urban settings to mitigate flooding risks. Findings from the review offer insights into the complexities urban road networks face and propose best practices for enhancing resilience in flood-prone areas like Davao City.
