Traffic updates: Road closures in Juárez and AI traffic lights in Mar del Plata

In Juárez, Mexico, the General Coordination of Road Safety has issued a warning to motorists regarding upcoming pedestrian races scheduled for this weekend. The Seminario race on Sunday, the 27th, will result in the closure of Pedro Rosales de León and specific lanes of Manuel Gómez Morín. Additionally, the Construction Race organized by the College of Engineers will cause closures on Henry Dunant, Humberto Lara Leos, and parts of Adolfo López Mateos and Plutarco Elías Calles between 6:00 and 10:00 AM.

In Mar del Plata, Argentina, the Municipal Entity of Roads and Public Lighting (Emvial) is implementing adaptive traffic lights powered by Artificial Intelligence. The project involves installing detection cameras and sensors at the intersections of Juan B. Justo and De los Trabajadores with 12 de Octubre and Gaboto. For several weeks, the system will collect data to train the AI algorithm before transitioning to real-time automated traffic flow adjustments. Authorities have requested caution from both drivers and pedestrians during this technological implementation.
