VIDEO – The implementation of the “Smart City” project in Albania is expected to start soon, with the aim of increasing public safety in the country and preventing traffic accidents on the main national roads.
The Minister of Interior, Taulant Balla, together with high-ranking members of the State Police, attended a presentation of the final “Smart City” project by representatives of the United Arab Emirates at the Ministry of Interior.

It will be extended to the country’s 20 main cities and tourist areas with the most visitors.
“This project, which we hope to start implementing soon, aims to increase security in our communities, protect lives and private property, monitor traffic, etc. through a comprehensive system of technological solutions,” said the Minister during the meeting.

The project envisages the use of security cameras, cameras for automatic reading of vehicle number plates, linked to each other, which will allow real-time monitoring and identification of vehicles travelling on road axes of priority interest to the police, as well as at border points.
