«How AI-Driven Traffic Modelling Can Improve Optimization and Traffic Planning»

Urban mobility is changing rapidly, and traditional traffic models like RTM23+ are struggling to keep pace with the need for faster, more adaptive insights. In this talk, Umair Imam explores how AI-driven traffic modelling can complement and enhance such models by simulating flows dynamically, optimizing planning, and supporting real-time decision-making. Drawing on recent evaluations at Ruter and insights from the wider AI landscape, the session highlights how emerging approaches can transform the way we plan and operate sustainable transport.
