Main Points
The Traffic Engineering and Planning Agency (TEPA) has requested more than Rs 590 million from the Punjab Housing Department to install artificial‑intelligence (AI) based traffic signals across Lahore. The request was submitted on Saturday, 31 October 2026, following a pilot project that saw modern pelican traffic signals activated at Adda Plot and Jati Umra Chowk. Under the proposed project, major intersections throughout the city would be upgraded to an advanced traffic management system that replaces conventional traffic control mechanisms. Cameras installed at each intersection would monitor vehicle movement and assess traffic pressure in real time. Signal timings would then be adjusted automatically according to traffic volume, allowing longer green phases on roads experiencing heavier traffic and reducing unnecessary delays. TEPA said the initiative aims to address Lahore’s growing traffic congestion and improve the overall efficiency of the city’s road network. Article source: Urdu Point | Image credit: Urdu Point
