In a recent news from Arab News, it has been reported that Riyadh, the capital, will soon witness the launch of the new traffic management system. Now it answers my question on why there are lots of new cameras wit different type has been installed in different intersection sin Riyadh. From the report, it says that this camera is capable of counting vehicle numbers in addition to cameras that reads plate numbers. Transsuite System connects to various control of the traffic light in order to achieve a smooth traffic flow.
The new cameras can also monitor speeding vehicle and red light runners. I believe it can also monitor any abnormalities in crossing to see the cause of any traffic. It monitors almost 2000 intersections in Riyadh.
Traffic in Riyadh is visible due Metro Construction, but I must admit that it some intersection has really a good traffic management system. In fact in one of the crossings that I am passing every morning, the traffic becomes better because they introduced bypass.

Lets hope for the best outcome of this new traffic management system.

I hope this new traffic management system would be able to suggest some reroutes during peak hours.
