TrafficInfraTech Magazine Linking People Places & Progress
Agra is among the most visited tourist destinations in the world. To make the City roads free of congestion. The traffic police department is in the process of setting up a modern control room (MCR) to roll out the proposed integrated traffic management system (ITMS) and smart city surveillance system (SCSS) for monitoring traffic better and catch offenders of traffic rules. The systems will have 20 smart sensors-enabled traffic signals and high resolution CCTV (closed-circuit television) cameras to enable surveillance of 75 critical public places and make vehicular movement safe for commuters.
The ITMS will provide an integrated platform to centralize management of all traffic systems such as traffic signal control and traffic monitoring. It will also provide real time traffic information to motorists through electronic message signs that will enable incident management, tunnel and highway monitoring. The project will be designed and implemented by the consultant firm, Price Waterhouse Coopers and it would be functional around July 2016.
