Mar del Plata AI traffic light pilot

Overview

The Municipality of General Pueyrredón is launching a pilot program in Mar del Plata to implement AI-driven adaptive traffic lights. Managed by the Municipal Entity of Roads and Public Lighting (EMVIAL), the project aims to optimize vehicle flow by replacing existing controllers with equipment capable of real-time data processing.

The initiative involves installing detection and counting cameras at the intersection of Juan B. Justo and De los Trabajadores avenues. The system will first undergo a phase of at least two weeks using current programming to collect data, which will then be used to train an AI algorithm to automatically adjust signal timings based on real-time demand.
