India Debuts First AI-Driven Smart Traffic System on Dwarka Expressway, Elevating Highway Safety.

National | Dated: 27 Jun 2025

On June 25 2025, India introduced its pioneering AI-powered Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS) along a 56.46 km stretch of the Dwarka Expressway and NH‑48. Developed by Indian Highways Management Company Ltd (IHMCL) under NHAI, it marks India’s stride into intelligent, safe highway infrastructure.

🎯 Key Highlights:

  • - The ATMs operates over nearly 56.46 km, including 28 km from Shiv Murti to Kherki Daula on NH‑48, and 28.46 km on the Dwarka Expressway. This marks it as the largest AI-traffic deployment in India.
  • - Equipped to detect 14 traffic violations—including overspeeding, triple riding, seatbelt and helmet violations—the system ensures adherence to the Motor Vehicles Act and supports law enforcement.
  • - The system integrates 110 high-resolution PTZ cameras at 1 km intervals, Video Incident Detection & Enforcement System (VIDES), radar units, speed display boards, variable message signboards, and a centralized command centre.

💡 Other Important Facts:

  • (i) The ATMs links with the National Informatics Centre’s e-challan portal and local police for instant fines. The control room dispatches alerts and oversees incidents, while public awareness campaigns complement technical enforcement.
  • (ii) Covering accident-prone zones, the system helps reduce crashes, prevent wrong-way entries, and respond swiftly to emergencies—facilitating safer, smoother commutes on a crucial suburban corridor.
  • (iii) As a pilot aligned with NHAI’s 2023 smart highway guidelines, this ATMS serves as a blueprint for future corridors—potentially expanding to UER‑II and other major expressways across India.
