Quetta to Deploy AI-Powered Traffic Signals to Ease Congestion

The Balochistan government approved the installation of artificial‑intelligence traffic signals across Quetta after a meeting chaired by Chief Minister Mir Sarfraz Bugti. Officials briefed the chief minister on a system that monitors real‑time traffic conditions and automatically adjusts signal timings, aiming to cut congestion, improve road safety and modernize the city’s transport network.

Bugti directed all relevant departments to coordinate the rollout and ensure a sustainable, modern traffic‑management solution. The project is part of a broader push for smart urban infrastructure, echoing similar plans discussed for Islamabad’s Safe City Expansion Project. Authorities expect the AI signals to reduce waiting times, enhance traffic monitoring, and promote better road discipline throughout Quetta.
