The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has revealed an advanced AI-powered traffic platform, “Data Drive – Clear Guide”. Notably, it is aimed at easing traffic congestion and improving the efficiency of roads across the city.
This new system uses real-time and historical traffic data from the last five years. Therefore, it allows authorities to access road conditions and analyse traffic patterns. In addition, it also helps the authority to address congestion with unpredictable speed and accuracy.
Harnessing AI for Smarter Mobility
The RTA confirmed that the campaign is a part of the broader strategy to convert Dubai into the world’s smartest city and a global leaders in innovation and sustainability. Moreover, it is integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) and intelligent data analytics.
Therefore, the authority aims to improve traffic management and support autonomous mobility through this campaign. In addition, it is focused on enhancing the digital competitiveness of the city.
The platform can give instant notifications on traffic movement. This helps the officials to respond promptly to unexpected congestion, accidents, and a decrease in speeds. Similarly, it can compare the performance of the different timeframes and benchmark against five years of data. So, it offers valuable insights into recurring patterns and bottlenecks.
From Manual Reports to Real-Time Insights with Data Drive – Clear Guide
Previously, traffic analysis depended on manually collected data from consultants, field teams, and reports, which often took weeks to process. Now, this new platform delivers the same insights within minutes to ensure faster decision-making and more efficient solutions.
Notably, the platform uses high-volume traffic data from the leading international providers and processes it through advanced analytics. Therefore, the system offers a real-time interactive map displaying the current road conditions. Moreover, users can filter by geographic area, street, average speed, travel time, or traffic density for detailed analysis.
Improving Response Times & Project Planning
The platform monitors the effectiveness of traffic diversions during events and roadworks. Thus, it allows the RTA team to work to avoid delays. Moreover, automated reports before and after projects help evaluate their impact to ensure continuous improvement in Dubai’s road network.
According to the RTA, this innovation is a broader step in the smart mobility solution. Moreover, it empowers Dubai to manage its roads with greater precious, speed, and sustainability. In addition, such initiatives help Dubai to set new milestones for urban mobility in the Middle East and beyond.
