In this role you will get to oversee the operational performance, safety, asset condition, and continuous traffic flow of a city-wide road network within a landmark giga-project. You will support Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), traffic operations, road asset maintenance, event mobility, and smart-city integration to ensure highways, urban streets, and transit corridors operate safely and efficiently during daily operations and major events.

What You'll Be Doing

• Oversee the day-to-day operational performance and condition of highways, urban roads, intersections, transit corridors, and associated road infrastructure.

• Monitor real-time traffic conditions using Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), traffic management platforms, roadside sensors, CCTV, and traffic data feeds.

• Analyze traffic speeds, volumes, congestion levels, travel times, incidents, and network performance to identify operational issues.

• Monitor and optimize intelligent traffic signal operations and timing plans to improve traffic flow and reduce congestion.

• Coordinate with Traffic Management Centers (TMC), City Operations, Security, emergency services, and other stakeholders during incidents and network disruptions.

• Support rapid response to road accidents, vehicle breakdowns, obstructions, and other incidents affecting network availability.

• Develop and implement traffic management measures to maintain safe and efficient movement during planned and unplanned disruptions.

• Conduct regular technical inspections and condition assessments of roads, pavements, intersections, and associated infrastructure.

• Plan safe diversions, detours, temporary lane closures, traffic control arrangements, and alternative access routes.

• Coordinate event traffic strategies with parking, public transport, security, emergency response, venue operations, and mobility teams.

• Assess road network capacity against anticipated event demand and identify potential congestion points before major events.

• Coordinate road network operations with parking arrival and departure strategies to reduce queuing and congestion around major destinations.

• Analyze historical and real-time traffic telemetry to identify recurring congestion zones, network bottlenecks, and operational improvement opportunities.

• Support integration of roadside ITS devices, traffic signals, CCTV, Variable Message Signs (VMS), traffic detectors, and other smart mobility technologies.

• Coordinate integration of road and ITS systems with the central City Operations or Traffic Management platform.

• Support planning and operational readiness for connected, autonomous, and emerging mobility technologies where applicable.
