Dubai Announces AI Plan To Slash Traffic Jams
Dubai will use artificial intelligence (AI) technology to analyse traffic and reduce congestion on roads.
The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has launched a comprehensive Enterprise Platform for designing and developing AI and data science solutions at world-class standards in collaboration with top global firms.
It is characterised by an exceptional ability to process RTA-owned data and restructure it for training machine learning models that foster innovation and leadership across a variety of operations, including predictive maintenance for roads and bridges, public transportation route planning, crowd management and more.
“Applications include analysing traffic data and identifying patterns and forecasts, which contributes to an efficient road network planning and reduces traffic congestion,” noted Al Tayer, Director-General, Chairman of the Board of Executive Directors, RTA.
