PositiveImpact Implementing Smart Traffic Management Systems can lead to improved traffic flow, reducing congestion effectively. Future generations may benefit from a well-maintained highway ecosystem, decreased time spent in traffic, less fuel consumption, and reduced greenhouse gas emissions. Over time, enhanced data management on traffic patterns could promote more sustainable urban development practices in Switzerland.

NegativeImpact While Smart Traffic Management Systems can optimize traffic flow, there's a risk that reliance on technology might lead to obsolescence and increased maintenance costs in the future. Additionally, if the infrastructure is not upgraded simultaneously, the system may become insufficient at managing higher traffic volumes as population growth continues, leading to potential increases in congestion if system capabilities are not regularly updated. Also, it may perpetuate car dependency rather than promoting sustainable transport alternatives.
