Bhubaneswar, Nov 19: Bhubaneswar is set to install a road-accident awareness clock at AG Square, aimed at alerting citizens about road accidents and promoting safer behaviour on the roads. The Joint Transport Commissioner has written to the General Manager of Bhubaneswar Smart City Limited (BSCL), requesting necessary action for the installation.

According to the letter, the proposed “road-accident clock” will serve as a tool to enhance public awareness and encourage positive behavioural changes related to road safety.

A techno-commercial proposal for an outdoor video wall, intended to be part of the accident-clock setup, has also been submitted by M/s Adsoft Technology Limited. The Joint Transport Commissioner has further advised BSCL to proceed with the required steps in consultation with the Transport Commissioner.
