The government is preparing to deploy an AI-powered smart traffic system in Malé.
The initiative aims to improve traffic flow and reduce congestion in the densely populated capital. Details on the technology provider, timeline and specific features have not yet been fully disclosed.
Malé faces ongoing traffic challenges because of limited road space and high vehicle numbers. Officials have previously discussed various measures, including better public transport and infrastructure upgrades.
The smart system is expected to use data and automated controls to manage signals and monitor conditions in real time. Further information on implementation is expected as the project advances.
The plan forms part of broader efforts to modernise urban management in the greater Malé area.
