Intelligent traffic management system for Lahaul

Tribune News Service
Mandi, July 14

An intelligent traffic management system has been introduced in the tribal district of Lahaul and Spiti.

CCTV cameras have been installed at key locations on the roadside to keep tabs on the movement of vehicles.

SP Manav Verma says that the system would capture the details of all vehicles passing through the district and detect traffic rule violations.

He adds that the data collected will also help in effective traffic management along with crime detection and investigation. Lahaul and Spiti is the first tribal district in the state to have such a system.

The Himachal Police are planning to set up such systems across the state for effective traffic management.

Since the opening of the Atal Tunnel on the Manali-Leh highway, Lahaul and Spiti is witnessing a huge tourist influx. As a result, the police have been struggling to regulate traffic.

The district police are hopeful that the system will play a crucial role in monitoring traffic effectively during the peak tourist season.
