In line with its Vision Statement to become \u201cThe world leader in seamless & sustainable mobility,\u201d the Dubai Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has embarked on the second phase of expanding Intelligent Traffic Systems (ITS) coverage across Dubai\u2019s road network, which includes establishing the Dubai Intelligent Traffic Systems Center (DITSC). <\/strong>This initiative aims to enhance personal mobility, travel safety, and traffic management, while reducing congestion and travel demand. Currently covering 60% of the emirate\u2019s main roads, the program plans to extend this to 100%, increasing the network from 480 km (298.26 mi) to 710 km (441.17 mi). This expansion, the largest of its kind on Dubai\u2019s main highways (E&D Roads), is expected to decrease congestion, travel time, fuel consumption, and emissions, thereby improving the overall quality of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Role In Establishing The Dubai Intelligent Traffic Systems Center (DITSC)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In the early stages, the project established the Dubai Intelligent Traffic Systems Center (DITSC<\/a>) at Al Barsha, one of the world\u2019s largest and most sophisticated traffic control centers. The center uses innovative technologies and traffic management systems to support Dubai\u2019s growth, making it a global leader in Intelligent Traffic Systems (ITS) by incorporating sustainability and AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So far, the project has improved incident monitoring by 63%, reduced response times by 30%, enhanced traffic flow, increased traffic management efficiency, and reduced journey times by 20% through Variable Message Signs (VMS). These improvements have led to better safety, enhanced traffic management, and an overall better quality of life.<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The predictive modeling module of the Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS), designed by Parsons, allows RTA to execute the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
