Armenia’s road police continue to take measures aimed at ensuring smooth traffic in the country, with another innovation introduced at one of the crossroads in capital city of Yerevan to tackle the issue of traffic congestion, the police said in a statement.
First “smart crossroad” in Armenia excludes traffic jams
STEPANAKERT, MARCH 23, ARTSAKHPRESS:Special traffic light sensors have been put into operation on the crossroads of Gasparyan-Yerevan Streets for only a few days, and, according to the police, “positive change is already evident”.
The ultrasonic sensors, which are made in Armenia, are novel not only in the country but also in the region.
The sensors simply exclude traffic jams since the device counts the number of vehicles within seconds and turns the red traffic light into green if necessary.
This is the first “smart crossroad” in Armenia, where traffic jams are ruled out. The road police are now examining other crossroads to install the device. “Soon we will have other smart and traffic jam-free crossroads as well,” the police said.
