real-time safety and traffic analytics, is supporting a major Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) upgrade across 95 sites surrounding <b>MetLife Stadium<\/b> ahead of the <b>2026 FIFA World Cup Championship<\/b>.<\/p><p>\nThe project is part of a broader effort led by the <b>New Jersey Department of Transportation<\/b> (NJDOT) to prepare critical roadway infrastructure for a significant increase in traffic during the tournament, with more than 1 million visitors expected across the New York\u2013New Jersey region.<\/p><p>\n<b>New Jersey Expands Traffic Monitoring Across Key Corridors<\/b><\/p><p>\nThe deployment spans highways and surface streets throughout the Meadowlands area, where a mix of complex roadway infrastructure and event-driven congestion presents unique operational challenges.<\/p><p>\nDerq\u2019s AI-powered analytics platform is being used to process real-time data from roadway cameras and monitor key conditions, including:<\/p><ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li>\nCrash detection<\/li>\n<li>\nWrong-way driving<\/li>\n<li>\nPedestrian and right-of-way intrusions<\/li>\n<li>\nFire detection<\/li>\n<li>\nAnimal detection<\/li>\n<li>\nVehicle and pedestrian counts, and traffic patterns<\/li>\n<\/ul><p>\nThe data feeds into NJDOT\u2019s Advanced Traffic Management System<b> <\/b>(ATMS), helping transportation teams monitor conditions and manage traffic during high-volume events.<\/p><p>\n<b>Award-Winning Planning Effort Informs Deployment<\/b><\/p><p>\n<b>Michael Baker International <\/b>specified the project and led a comprehensive ITS needs assessment, earning a Transportation Achievement Award from the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) for its work.<\/p><p>\nEngineering firm <b>HNTB<\/b> is leading implementation, with Derq providing analytics and monitoring capabilities within the broader system, alongside regional partner <b>SCP Signal Control Products<\/b>.<\/p><p>\n<b>Cities Look to Real-Time Data Ahead of Major Events<\/b><\/p><p>\nAs cities prepare for large-scale events like the World Cup, transportation agencies are placing greater emphasis on real-time visibility into roadway conditions.<\/p><p>\n\u201cThis project marks an important opportunity to apply our technology in one of the most complex and high-visibility transportation environments tied to the biggest sporting event in the world,\u201d said <b>Dr. Georges Aoude<\/b>, Co-Founder and CEO of Derq. \u201cBy delivering continuous insights and real-time alerts, we enable transportation agencies to better anticipate risks, adapt to changing conditions, and operate more proactively.\u201d<\/p><p>\n<b>Upgrades Expected to Extend Beyond the Tournament<\/b><\/p><p>\nWhile the system is being deployed ahead of the World Cup, the infrastructure is expected to support ongoing traffic operations across the region, improving visibility into roadway conditions during future events and everyday travel.<\/p><p>\nFor more information, visit <a
