| Summary: | Optimal urban road management is essential for city governance, yet the deficiencies in existing road banning systems have given rise to a host of issues that pose threats to the overall functionality and safety of urban road networks. These problems manifest as extended queues on crowded roads and an increase in accidents, primarily due to the disorderly parking of freight transports. Despite legislative efforts, urban cities still grapple with persistent challenges, hindering traffic flow and jeopardizing public safety. There’s a need for a detailed analysis on the key issues among freight drivers and the effectiveness of phase-out terms in improving the banning system. To address this matter, the paper thoroughly examines information from the most recent literature review. This study is also supported by the transport system authorities as well as road safety experts at the Malaysian Institute of Road Safety Research (MIROS), and public perspectives from netizens. The study focuses on issues with the temporary road banning systems, particularly in the Klang Valley area specified by the Kuala Lumpur Municipality Department (DBKL). Its goal is to reveal insights into current inefficiencies in road management and propose innovative solutions. Additionally, these findings will be used to create smart sensor devices, which have the potential to transform on how urban road traffic bans can be managed. Once in place, these devices are expected to provide data-driven solutions for developing smarter cities.
