The 6854 Qatar Mobility Innovations Centre (QMIC) at the Qatar Science and Technology Park scooped two prestigious awards including the Innovation in Traffic Management award, and the Road Transport Technology award at this year’s 553 Gulf Traffic exhibition and conference for its Masarak iTraffic system.
