Highway
Beyond Speed
Making Expressways Smarter and Safer
Business Background
A newly developed expressway in India was designed to improve connectivity and support economic growth. However, within months of partial operations, it witnessed over 1,200 accidents and more than 130 fatalities, highlighting critical gaps in safety management, traffic regulation, and emergency response. Traditional systems were unable to meet the demands of a high-speed, high-volume corridor, creating the need for an advanced Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) to enhance safety, efficiency, and resilience.
The ITS Miracle
702
traffic monitoring cameras and 140 Video Incident Detection Systems for real-time surveillance
Up to 60%
through automated digital
verification
16
drones enabling faster aerial monitoring and quick incident assessment
88
Variable Message Signages (VMS) to keep commuters informed
24
toll plazas with 326 automated lanes, reducing congestion and travel time by nearly 20%
1,850
smart street lights ensuring better visibility and night-time safety
Amnex Solution
Amnex implemented a comprehensive ITS framework that brought together real-time monitoring, emergency response, automated tolling, and centralized control. The solution included high-definition traffic cameras, drone surveillance, smart toll lanes, VMS boards, emergency call boxes, and a network of Traffic Management Centers (TMCs). With one Central TMC, seven regional centers, and two toll TMCs, the system ensures swift coordination, enhanced road safety, and continuous operational efficiency.
