In its place, BTP has introduced the ASTraM App, a newly developed platform that integrates multiple traffic-related services.

The police urged citizens to download and use ASTraM, available on both Google Play Store and the App Store, for reporting traffic violations, accessing real-time traffic updates, and making fine payments.

“By transitioning to this new platform, citizens can continue to play a vital role in maintaining order on our roads while benefiting from a more efficient and user-friendly experience,” the BTP stated in its post.

The move aims to streamline public participation in traffic regulation and enhance digital services for Bengaluru’s commuters.
