## Resource

Australia’s testing next-gen AI traffic lights in Petrie, Queensland, that adapt in real time to actual traffic—not rigid schedules. Equipped with smart sensors that distinguish cars, bikes, pedestrians, and even prioritize buses, these lights cut unnecessary idling, shorten safe all-red intervals, and aim to smooth commutes while slashing emissions. If successful, this pilot could expand to complex intersections nationwide, marking a smarter, AI-driven future for urban infrastructure.
