Dubai's RTA introduces 'Data Drive – Clear Guide,' an AI-powered platform designed to improve traffic management by analyzing historical and real-time data.

Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has unveiled "Data Drive – Clear Guide," an advanced digital platform leveraging artificial intelligence to analyze extensive historical traffic data alongside current road conditions. This innovative approach aims to significantly reduce congestion and enhance the efficiency of traffic flow throughout the emirate.

The platform synthesizes vast amounts of traffic data from top-tier international sources, providing precise insights on a minute-to-minute basis through an interactive map. Users can examine specific roads or regions, gauge average speeds, track traffic density, and measure travel times, making it an invaluable resource for both operational teams and strategic planners.

Identifying periods of smooth traffic flow versus network bottlenecks

Issuing immediate alerts about disruptions, jams, or unexpected slowdowns

Real-time monitoring of traffic diversions and event-related road performance

Automatically generating before-and-after reports to assess the impact of roadworks or infrastructure enhancements

This system replaces outdated manual data-gathering methods that previously required weeks, now delivering insights within minutes. This transformation dramatically accelerates response times, empowering RTA teams to swiftly manage incidents, optimize diversions, and minimize delays.

The launch is part of RTA’s broader initiative to integrate AI with intelligent analytics and autonomous mobility solutions. This vision aims to position Dubai as the world’s smartest city and a leader in innovation, sustainability, and transport efficiency. The initiative aligns with Akhbrna News' continuing coverage on how cutting-edge technology is being employed across sectors worldwide.

According to RTA officials, the new platform will play a crucial role in advancing digital transformation within Dubai’s transport sector by equipping stakeholders with tools necessary for smarter planning, faster responses, and ensuring efficient movement within the city.
