Overview of the Practice
Digital Traffic Brain is a Maltese innovation that applies artificial intelligence to transform urban mobility management. By integrating real-time data from cameras, sensors, and road infrastructure, it creates a dynamic system that adapts continuously to changing conditions. It manages traffic lights, optimises public transport routes, detects incidents, and even supports municipalities with road maintenance and litter detection. Unlike fixed systems, it learns and evolves with behaviour, enabling smarter, safer, and more sustainable urban living.
Outcomes and Impact
- Lowered emissions through reduced idling and congestion
- Improved air quality in urban areas
- Safer streets and quicker emergency interventions
- Cleaner public spaces via waste monitoring
- Economic savings on fuel, time, and road repairs
- Job creation in AI, data analysis, and sustainable mobility
- Reduced national costs of congestion in Malta
