SURAT, GUJARAT : The Surat traffic police department has implemented a sophisticated traffic control system on a trial basis at 10 main traffic crossroads in a pioneering attempt towards improving urban mobility and road safety. This creative solution lets police situated in a central control room, using sophisticated equipment, watch traffic flows at these intersections.
High-density CCTV cameras included in the recently installed system offer real-time traffic intersection monitoring. Control room staff members monitor several traffic offenses include commuters standing on the zebra crossing with a red signal, driving on the wrong side, jumping traffic signals, and even traffic cops ignoring their responsibilities at the junctions.
The device lets traffic cops at the crossings establish instant communication with control room officials. Control room staff members quickly notify the traffic cops on the ground upon seeing any rule infractions, therefore guaranteeing quick application of traffic laws. By means of real-time monitoring and communication, traffic flow is supposed to be improved and traffic law compliance strengthened.
A Surat traffic police department spokesman said: “The sophisticated traffic management system is designed to ensure stricter adherence to traffic rules and create a safer environment for all road users.” “We are sure that this technology will considerably lower traffic violations and raise traffic management’s general effectiveness.”
The system’s pilot phase has demonstrated encouraging outcomes; traffic infractions at the watched junctions have clearly dropped. Inspired by this achievement, the Surat traffic police department intends to grow the system to 200 main traffic crossings all throughout the city in the next months.
This development in traffic management is predicted to make it more difficult for commuters to cross the zebra line during red signals, drive on the wrong side, or leap traffic signals. The automatic surveillance and quick reaction system seeks to establish discipline among drivers, therefore lowering accidents and increasing road safety.
Regarding the new system, commuters have responded differently. Although some value the improved safety precautions, others are worried about possible privacy problems. The traffic police agency guarantees, nevertheless, that the main objectives are to guarantee public safety and effective traffic management.
