UAE energy minister launched the Salamah 365 transformational project that aims to enhance public safety

The UAE's energy minister inaugurated the Salamah 365 transformative initiative on Tuesday, with the goal of improving public safety via the use of innovative solutions and interactive warning systems.

The project will investigate resolving identified accident hotspots - specific locations where road traffic collisions have historically been concentrated, implementing a locally tailored model of pedestrian crossings, predicting floods before they occur by monitoring dams and valleys, and implementing a safe, smart school model. 16 dams and nine major valleys are being monitored during the trial phase.

In the presence of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President, Prime Minister of the UAE, and Ruler of Dubai, Suhail Al Mazrouei, Minister of Energy and Infrastructure, announced the launch of the National Programme for Infrastructure Development, a transformational project under the performance agreements signed by federal authorities in 2022.
