AI-powered traffic signal system to ease traffic congestion rolled out in Bengaluru, covering 200 junctions

- Bengaluru traffic police and DULT are implementing AI-powered adaptive traffic signal systems at 200 junctions across the city. - Currently, 23 out of 165 planned junctions have adaptive signals installed, with full implementation expected by January 2025. - The new system will dynamically adjust signal timings based on real-time vehicle density, improving traffic flow. - Different technologies are being used: CoSiCoSt by the traffic police and MODERATO by DULT, tailored to local conditions. - DULT's project, funded by JICA and executed by Nagoya Electric Works, has faced delays but is nearing completion at 28 junctions.
