Visakhapatnam's traffic police are set to receive a technological upgrade to help them cope with the city's intense heat. Recognizing the challenges faced by officers working long hours in high temperatures, authorities are introducing air-conditioned (AC) helmets designed to provide relief and improve working conditions.
These AC helmets are equipped with cooling mechanisms that help regulate temperature, ensuring that officers remain comfortable during their duties. The initiative aims to enhance the efficiency and well-being of traffic personnel, leading to better traffic management and safety on the roads.
The introduction of such innovative gear underscores the commitment of the city's administration to leverage technology for the welfare of its employees. It also sets a precedent for other cities facing similar climatic challenges.
