    Lagos Deploys New Smart Traffic System To Curb Speeding, Violations

    The Lagos State Ministry of Transportation, in collaboration with Huawei Technologies, has deployed four new Intelligent Transport System sites to monitor and detect speeding and manage traffic flows.

    The Commissioner for Transportation, Oluwaseun Osiyemi, announced this during a press briefing on Thursday, stating that the new installations would complement the existing Automatic Number Plate Recognition cameras and other Traffic Management Solution devices.

    “The checkpoint sites are designed to detect overspeeding. One is located at Alapere, Ogudu Road, with a speed limit of 80km/h, while the other is installed at Nitel, Mobolaji Bank Anthony Way, with a speed limit of 60km/h. These checkpoint sites are strategically located to detect and deter overspeeding, which remains one of the leading causes of road accidents.

    “On the other hand, the e-police sites for traffic violations are installed at Allen Avenue Road Junction and Nurudeen Olowopopo Road. These e-police sites are designed to detect a wide range of traffic violations, including running red lights, non-compliance with lane discipline, illegal U-turns and reverse driving on highways,” Osiyemi said.

    While appealing to motorists for compliance, he stated that the fine for violating the red light is N20,000 and the fine for violating the speed limit is N50,000.

    “It is important to also note that enforcement will commence immediately. Motorists who violate traffic laws as detected by the ITS will receive SMS notifications from the Vehicle Inspection Service department, detailing the nature of the violation and the corresponding fines to be paid.

    “This system is not designed to be punitive but to encourage responsible driving behaviour and reduce the rate of accidents on our roads. The goal is simple: to save lives, protect property, and create an orderly transportation environment,” he added.

    Present at the briefing included the Commissioner for Innovation, Science, and Technology, Olatunbosun Alake, Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Transportation, Olawale Musa, representatives from Huawei Technologies, and key directors from the ministry.
