PETALING JAYA: The country is strengthening efforts to adopt smarter mobility systems as vehicle numbers continue to rise and the road network expands, says Works Minister Datuk Seri Alexander Nanta Linggi. He said the government is moving beyond simply building new roads by expanding the use of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) and digital platforms to improve traffic monitoring, road safety and mobility management. He said the need for smarter mobility management is becoming increasingly important, with more than 1.57 million new vehicles registered in 2024. It is about building infrastructure that is smarter, safer and more sustainable for the well-being of the people and the progress of the nation,” he said. /endWorks Minister, Alexander Nanta Linggi, Intelligent Transport Systems, ITS, Roadwork, Digital Platform, Traffic
