At the opening of the 32nd ITS World Congress in Gangneung, South Korea, Akhilesh Srivastava on why India needs Road Safety 2.0: intelligent transport systems with AI, V2X and faster emergency response that prevent crashes by design.
At ITS India Congress 2026, Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi, ITS India Forum set out five roadmaps for Viksit Bharat 2047: citizen-centric mobility, next-generation road user charging, connected mobility, multimodal mobility and logistics, and ITS capacity building.
ONGC has discovered natural gas in the deep waters of the Mahanadi Basin, around 43 km off the coast of Odisha.
The discovery was made at a depth of around 1,441ā1,452 metres, with gas flowing for several days and showing sustained pressure.
Thatās encouraging.
But this is still an early-stage discovery. More testing and drilling will tell us how large the reserves are and whether they can be developed commercially.
A viral aerial view of Chinaās G4 Expressway toll plaza perfectly illustrates a fundamental rule of traffic engineering.
A network’s capacity is limited by its bottleneck.
The plaza opens up to 36 lanes to process toll payments. But beyond the gates, all those vehicles are forced to merge into a 4-lane highway.
ITS India Forum welcomes the Union Cabinet’s approval of the ā¹1,789.52-crore AI-enabled Intelligent Traffic Management System (ITMS) for Delhi ā 1,092 adaptive signals, 1,029 enforcement points and 42 corridors.
Heartfelt thanks to everyone who has stood by ITS India Forum, supported our work and encouraged us over the years. š
As President, Iām encouraged to see our championed intelligent transport solutions move from policy/conference halls to implementation.
Cabinet approval of ā¹1,789.52 crore for Delhi’s Intelligent Traffic Management System (ITMS) is a landmark step for safer, smarter, efficient mobility.
Heartfelt gratitude to the Honourable Supreme Court Committee on Road Safety, Ministry of Roads Transport & Highways and Department of Telecommunications.
Yesterday, India took a major step toward a future where vehicles & roads don’t just carry traffic, they help prevent crashes.
The Gazette notification for V2X communication in the 5.9 GHz band (5875ā5905 MHz) has officially been published, delicensing 30 MHz of spectrum for cellular vehicle connectivity and laying the foundation for connected vehicles, smarter infrastructure, and safer roads across the country.
Mr. Akhilesh Srivastava to Speak at MoVACon in 24th-26th February 2026, Ahmedabad Topic – Simplifying Intelligent Traffic Management Systems: Role of Technology
One small improvement in mobility can save thousands of lives, and discussions like these remind us why the work matters.
The “Ador Summit 2025: Innovative Mobility, Smarter Traffic & Safer Roads” in Pune was truly insightful.
From advanced ATMS solutions to enforcement technologies and modern road-safety infrastructure, every showcase highlighted how quickly India’s mobility ecosystem is evolving.
Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru: India’s well-developed cities, where the daily commute is a challenge for citizens.
The Delhi Metro can carry around 3,000 passengers at a time.
The Mumbai local is built for 6,000ā¦ but ends up carrying over 10,000.
We’ve built massive infrastructure, metros, highways, flyovers, expressways, etc., and the pressure on our transport systems keeps rising.
