Mumbai: Any violation of traffic rules while driving on the Mumbai-Pune will now be fined and the fine will be collected at toll plazas.
MSRDC, in collaboration with the Highway Police Security is implementing India’s first IT-based system on the e-way, where traffic violations will be tracked via surveillance and the weight of heavy vehicles will be measured using sensors. The system will have an automatic number plate registration system. Citizens can check their list of traffic violations through kiosks.
A MSRDC officer said, “To reduce accidents on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway, MSRDC and the Highway Police Security have decided to work jointly. After conducting a survey, the authorities found that the main reason for accidents is violation of traffic rules.”
