Delhi to Deploy AI-Based Traffic System on 42 Roads with Varied Congestion Relief
Delhi plans to implement an AI-backed Integrated Traffic Management System (ITMS) across 42 key road corridors to improve traffic flow. Simulation data from the Delhi Traffic Police projects that some roads, like Nelson Mandela Road and the DND Flyway, could see delays reduced by around 40% and travel times cut by over 25%. However, heavily congested routes such as the Ring Road and Outer Ring Road may experience only modest improvements. The actual impact will be clearer after the system's phased rollout and real-world assessment.
