Smart Traffic Signals: Bangladesh Fights Urban Congestion with Technology

Bangladesh has announced the installation of AI-powered smart traffic signals in Dhaka to reduce congestion and improve road safety. The system will use real-time data to adjust traffic light timings based on vehicle flow, reducing unnecessary delays. The government aims to modernize urban transport and reduce pollution caused by idling vehicles. Officials hope this initiative will enhance efficiency and encourage the use of smart city technologies in other parts of the country. If successful, the project may be expanded to other major cities in Bangladesh.
