Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah inaugurated the province’s first Traffic Regulation and Citation System (TRACS) at the Central Police Office on Monday.
Calling TRACS "more than a technological upgrade," the chief minister stated that the platform reflects the government's commitment to transparency, modernisation, and efficient and citizen-focused service delivery.
Sindh AI-based traffic regulation system
The new system replaces the conventional manual ticketing system with a fully automated AI-based e-ticketing system. TRACS utilises CCTV cameras to automatically identify traffic offences, such as speeding, ignoring red light signals, and non-wearing of helmets, without the element of human judgement being applied and with minimal engagement between citizens and traffic officials.
“Through TRACS, we are harnessing technology to serve and protect our citizens more effectively. It is not merely a Police Department initiative; it is a reform for every citizen,” said Shah during the inauguration ceremony.
The AI-powered system is directly connected to key federal databases, including Excise & Taxation, the Driving License System, and NADRA's e-Sahulat.
It also features integrations with online payment gateways, enabling citizens to check and pay fines conveniently by using either the TRACS mobile application or Sahulat Centres created at larger traffic offices and police stations.
In this initial phase, 200 smart cameras will be installed across Karachi, with plans to increase to 12,000 cameras citywide and eventually to all districts of Sindh. Implementation will be managed by the Citizen-Police Liaison Committee (CPLC), ensuring impartiality, transparency, and a means of complaint.
