JAKARTA - Acting Governor of DKI Jakarta Heru Budi Hartono reviewed the operation of the Network Operation Center (NOS) Intelligent Traffict light System (ITS) as a congestion breaking system using artificial intelligence (AI) technology. The NOS ITS system has been implemented since April 2023. Heru said this system has shown efficiency in terms of reducing vehicle density across intersections. "This is to facilitate monitoring of congestion and facilitate traffic, so it is observed that there is an efficiency (reducing queues) of around 20 percent," said Heru at the Abdul Muis Technical Service Building, Tanah Abang, Central Jakarta, Tuesday, July 4. Head of the DKI Jakarta Transportation Agency, Syafrin Liputo, said that this congestion decomposition system has been installed at 20 intersection points with a budget last year. This year, there will be an additional placement of 40 junctions. The total budget for the procurement of this project reached Rp208 billion. "Last year the budget was Rp. 78 billion. This year (with the addition of 40 intersections) is around Rp. 130 billion," said Syafrin. Syafrin explained that the device used in the congestion decomposition system uses ANPR cameras which resemble the E-TLE camera. With AI technology, the system will carry out direct identification in real-time, how much time (light) is needed for each intersection point to minimize density. "On one intersection, it depends on the number of legs. So there are 3 ANPRs installed at 3 feet of intersection. If there are 4 intersections, automatically there will be 4 ANPR cameras with other equipment," explained Syafrin. "For the selection of intersections, of course we see from the points where traffic congestion rates are high, so that there are priorities," he continued. Here are 20 junctions that have implemented an AI-tech congestion decomposition system: 1. Jalan Jembatan 2 Raya - Jalan Tubagus Angke 2. Jalan Kyai Tapa - Jalan Daan Mogot 3. S.
