The system enables real-time monitoring of inspectors’ performance and ticket inspection activities, with the capability to issue live updates and generate analytical reports on operational outcomes.
During major events, inspection teams are deployed at high-footfall stations based on multi-source data analysis, which helps predict areas more prone to violations, ensuring a faster and more effective response.
Additionally, the system records passenger data to identify repeat offenders and educate them on the importance of adhering to regulations. It has resulted in a 14 per cent monthly increase in inspection rates and improved violation detection, ultimately enhancing passenger compliance with Dubai Metro and Tram regulations.
The system includes a specialised centre dedicated to strengthening inspection oversight and violation monitoring at Dubai Metro and Tram, ensuring optimal resource utilisation and real-time tracking of operational activities.
Equipped with live monitoring screens, it enables instant oversight of ticket inspectors, ensuring swift responses to violations, particularly those affecting passenger safety and comfort.
