AI-powered Intelligent Traffic Management System (ITMS) will be introduced along Mumbai-Pune Expressway as per the latest reports. AI and data analytics will streamline vehicle flow and bolster road safety. The RTO will monitor the system from the control room at Lonavala. ITMS will be able to automatically recognize vehicle number plates, enabling the police to issue e-challans for traffic violations. The system, connected to the central control room, will also significantly reduce the occurrence of prolonged traffic congestion caused by stationary vehicles.
The ITMS will deploy more than 200 mounted AI-enabled CCTV cameras mounted on gantries strategically positioned along the 95-kilometer stretch. The cameras can detect up to 17 different types of traffic violations, ensuring comprehensive surveillance and enforcement.
