The Noida Authority in India is to launch its intelligent traffic management system (ITMS) on the Noida-Greater Noida expressway from 11 January, following a week of trials from 5 January.

The system will monitor traffic on the expressway and includes emergency call boxes linked to the expressway control room, as well as CCTV and automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) cameras to provide 24/7 surveillance.

LED message boards will provide drivers with information on road and weather conditions and warning messages intended to guide them to adapt speed to ensure a smoother traffic flow. Officials expect the system to reduce the accident rate on the high speed road by nearly 25 per cent.
