Swarajya's video: Advanced Traffic Management System ATMS Proposed On Delhi-Agra Highway

# Delhi Agra Highway The National Highways Authority of India will implement the first Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS) on Delhi-Agra stretch of NH-19 with the aim to make the corridor smooth and safe for commuters. The highways authority has floated a tender inviting bids from potential players. The project stretch will be from Badarpur border in Delhi to Agra. The NHAI has said that the ATMS is being implemented, “to make the transport on roads efficient, safe, and sustainable; to reduce the fatalities on roads by half compared to 2010's reported deaths”. The ATMS software will also be capable of generating e-challan automatically and integrated with the Vahan database, NIC and FASTag for obtaining vehicle registration and details required for e-challan and cross-verification of vehicle class. The information fed in the system will get transferred to the traffic management centre for processing and action. The system primarily works with feed from CCTVs and will alert incidents to the police and emergency service providers for quick rescue at site. The 180-km stretch will get at least 285 cameras to enable seamless real-time monitoring of road, traffic and weather conditions and congestion. According to the NHAI officials, this stretch has been selected for the first such project as it is one of the busiest NHs in the country and connects a major tourist destination.
