Abu Dhabi's Integrated Transport Centre activated smart ramp signals at seven on-ramps feeding Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Street in August 2025, using radar, video and AI-flagged cameras to throttle merging traffic before backups form. A build by Umovity, Econolite and Tatweer, commissioned May 2026 and billed as the Middle East's first fully adaptive ramp-metering network, links it to the emirate's traffic-modelling platform. The vendors project — but have not measured — up to $2.6M a year in avoided delay costs.
