• With speed control deemed a vital component of the system, a point-
to-point (P2P) automated speed enforcement system will be used to
detect the speed limits in which the average speed between the points
will be calculated.
• To keep the general public in the loop about the traffic at the
Expressway, a web portal and mobile app will be developed as well.
