Road Assets monitoring systems allow personnel to monitor real-time performance of asset and fault management detection. This article determines the characteristics of a unified integrated monitoring system to allow multiple type of asset with different roles to be easily monitored. The approach will allow easy data collection, group monitoring, overall asset assessment and method for open integration for multiple road electrical assets. From the analysis of findings, we propose a key concept and criterion of a Unified System which are categorized from similar field and functions which allow easy monitoring. Three major factors include Types of Assets, various Sources of Supplier Brands and Easy Maintenance. The implication of this study holds a significant value which supports smart city initiatives, enhances road safety, and optimizes asset management. The adoption of a unified system can improve urban infrastructure efficiency in real time asset downtime and decision-making. Moreover, efficient maintenance practices can be implemented by having the right monitoring system and contribute to more effective road network and aligning with urban development ultimately providing safer with more efficient road networks. The exploration of study offers fresh insights into an integrated and unified monitoring system adding value to stake holders especially road maintenance organization about the potential benefits and implications of similar systems, ultimately contributing to more efficient, safer, and technologically advanced road infrastructure.
