According to Aamir Ibrahim, “Traffic congestion can have a negative impact on economic growth and the quality of people’s lives. Even if we strengthen our road infrastructure, the ever-increasing level of traffic will surpass the capacity of our road network in busy city areas. The deployment of new communications technology backed by artificial intelligence (AI) may help to ease clogged roads. We at Jazz have been using technology and digital tools to address social and civic issues in Pakistan and are well positioned to work in collaboration with NHMP aimed at preparing traffic infrastructure tackle current and future challenges."

We look forward to more collaboration opportunities aimed at identifying ways of improving the experience for everyone on the road.” This interactive webinar allowed the NHMP officials to gain valuable insights on the ways technology companies, especially digital service providers like Jazz, can assist them in road traffic management and safety.
