“At Hyundai Motor India Foundation, our commitment to building a safer mobility ecosystem is at the heart of our ‘Easy Roads’ initiative. The Traffic Engineering Centre in Haryana, developed in collaboration with the Institute of Road Traffic Education (IRTE), stands as a model for scientific traffic management, road safety audits, and capacity building for enforcement agencies. By harnessing cutting-edge technology, we aim to reduce accidents, enhance driver behaviors, and create a more efficient transportation environment for citizens.” Said Mr Puneet Anand, Vice President, Hyundai Motor India Limited.

“The Traffic Engineering Centre (TEC) has been designed to scientifically audit develop sustainable traffic management system for Gurugram under the aegis of the Gurugram Traffic Police, where IRTE’s Road Safety Engineers observe traffic movement, violations, and behavioral issues of vulnerable road users, along with studying the causative factors related to congestion. These will be monitored and analysed through camera inputs of 218 junctions with the valuable support of the ICCC Gurugram.” Said Dr Rohit Baluja, President, IRTE while presenting the progress and outcomes of the Forensic Road Safety and Traffic Engineering Audit, a pioneering initiative led by IRTE engineers to promote scientific road safety management in the city.
