Dubai Road and Transport Authority (RTA) has signed a three-and-a-half-year deal to use Iteris’ ClearGuide software for monitoring roads and intersections.

Iteris will work on the "multi-million dollar" Software as a Service contract with TrafQuest, a local transportation solutions provider, to deliver the project.

ClearGuide includes bottleneck detection and alerts; dynamic maps to support detailed location-specific traffic analysis; route alerts to help identify and mitigate congestion; animations to analyse events and formulate response plans; plus historical trend reports and dynamic congestion charts to track improvements.

“With Dubai’s rapid growth and sizeable population, we’re proud to support a project that will help monitor and improve the city’s transportation operations,” said Dr. Moe Zarean, senior vice president of mobility consulting services at Iteris. 

“Our software is designed to help reduce congestion, enhance safety, and support more sustainable mobility for all road users, and we look forward to bringing that to the UAE.”

ClearGuide is part of the ClearMobility platform,  which is designed to monitor and optimise mobility infrastructure.
