Yadgir is getting a major upgrade for road safety. Police are installing a new Intelligent Traffic Management System (ITMS). This system will make roads much safer for everyone. Installation is almost complete across the district.
The Yadgir district police started a trial run this week. Superintendent of Police, B.S. Vedamurthy, shared this news. He wants to cut down on road accidents. The new system will help greatly.
This project costs Rs 5 crore. The State government is funding it. All cameras should be fully active by next month.
Yadgir’s Smart Traffic Control
The new ITMS uses smart cameras. They are placed at 14 busy intersections. These spots include the bypass road near the SP office. Other key areas are State Highway 150 and Nehru Nagar.
These cameras do many things. They watch for red light jumpers. They also catch speeding drivers. They can tell if you are driving on the wrong side. The system works 24/7.
You might be wondering how it works. The cameras spot traffic violations automatically. They take pictures or videos. This data goes to a central control room fast. Then, police can send e-challans to offenders.
This system also helps police manage traffic better. It can detect how many vehicles are on the road. This helps them understand traffic flow. Learn more about how intelligent traffic systems work here.
