Answer Body: 
  1. Provincial Traffic Service historically used a manual process to capture all outcomes of the various traffic interventions.

This approach was significantly adjusted as from the latter part of 2018, with the introduction and use of technology.

 

The use of technology entailed the development of a systems approach, and applications that would automatically upload all the verified data as listed in the below table into our Integrated Transport Hub.
