The Ministry of Works and Transport has revealed that the New Digital Registration Number Plates for Private and all other Vehicles will be rolled out on January 6th, 2025.
This was communicated during a Stakeholder Workshop for Motor Vehicle Agents and dealers today, Wednesday, December 18, 2024 ahead of the January 6th rollout of the digital number plates.
“All new vehicles registered from 6th January onwards will be required to register with the New Intelligent Transport Monitoring System – ITMS,” reads the Ministry’s statement on X.
One component of this project is the installation of digital number plates fitted complete with a digital tracker and vehicle owner’s particulars for improved road safety and general transport regulation.
Meanwhile, a total of 9,784 motorcycles have been fitted with the New Digital Registration Number Plates since commencement on 1st November 2024.
The new Intelligent Transport Monitoring System will enable real time tracking and identification of motor bike users which will greatly mitigate the security threats that are posed by criminals who wrongfully use motorbikes.
