Nashik: The Smart City corporation has set up Red Light Violation Detection (RLVD) and Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) cameras at 40 out of the total 55 traffic signals across Nashik city. These traffic signals will go live through the command and control room by the end of May. All these high-tech cameras are integrated with the command and control room of the smart city corporation, located at the Panchavati divisional building of the Nashik Municipal Corporation (NMC). Sumant More, the CEO of Nashik Municipal Smart City Development Corporation Ltd (NMSCDCL), told TOI they have started testing the RLVD and ANPR cameras at seven junctions — including Central Bus Stand, Trimbak Naka, Meher Signal, Canada Corner, Sharanpur Road, Gangapur Naka and Dream Castle on Makhmalabad Road — in the first phase. During the testing, it was found that more than 7 lakh vehicles crossed the traffic signals at seven locations over six days between April 19 and 24. Of them, around 50,000 jumped signals when they were red. Some vehicles violated the signals twice, thrice or more. "The history of the vehicles regarding the violations of the red signals can also be seen through the command and control room," More said.
