This year, specialists from the Traffic Management Center (TMC) installed and updated traffic lights at 61 addresses. When choosing a location for installation, they took into account the accident rate at the site, the traffic intensity, the number of lanes on the road, as well as the proximity to social institutions and the wishes of city residents. The work was carried out in almost all districts of the capital.
“Since January 2025, the Traffic Management Center has updated traffic lights at 40 addresses – they have replaced the equipment, installed additional sections and sound signals. New traffic lights have been installed at 21 locations: near places where residents gather and busy intersections, as well as in places where road accidents are concentrated. We continue
improve conditions for all road users on the instructions of Sergei Sobyanin,” said the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry Maxim Liksutov.
New traffic lights were also installed in areas with heavy traffic, such as multi-lane highways with a large number of public transport routes. Particular attention was paid to roads near schools, kindergartens, clinics and social institutions, such as government service centres and post offices.
During the modernization, traffic lights were equipped with buttons for pedestrians or additional sections indicating, for example, a turn. At the same time, the settings for the traffic light mode were adjusted more than one thousand times. This allowed pedestrians to spend less time waiting for a green light, and drivers to pass intersections and highways faster. The traffic light mode is reconfigured at the request of city residents, when the traffic pattern changes, and also for faster passage of public transport and cars through the most congested areas.
Before making a decision on installing a traffic light, the employees of the Traffic Management Center analyze the traffic situation and develop a project. After its approval, preparations begin for placing the equipment on the selected section.
In particular, this year the work was carried out in the Chertanovo Yuzhnoye district at the address: Kirovogradskaya Street, Building 42, Building 1. Schools No. 504 and 1545, as well as a sports complex, are located nearby. A regulated pedestrian crossing was organized there, which made it possible to increase the safety of all road users.
The pedestrian crossing in the Mitino district at 39 Dubravnaya Street has also become regulated. Traffic lights have been installed here to improve safety for residents and reduce accidents. There are many social facilities nearby, including a post office, School No. 1747 named after Hero of the Soviet Union D. M. Rumyantsev, School No. 1900, and City Polyclinic No. 180.
