Your city.
Your roads.
Your solution. 2026
A city-wide innovation platform to solve Raipur's real traffic challenges. Pick a chowk, spot the problem, propose a fix. Six themes, sixty ideas, one better city.
Every jam has a fix. We want yours.
Raipur Traffic Hackathon 2026 is an open call for practical, buildable ideas to fix the traffic problems citizens face every day, at real chowks on a real map. This is not a paper contest. Every submission is tied to a specific location and evaluated by a panel of engineers, urban planners, and police officers.
Whether you are a student, engineer, urban planner, startup founder, or a citizen who is tired of that one bad turn near your home, this is your shot at building the city you commute through.
Pick your battle. Or pick more than one.
You are free to submit an idea in any one theme, or in all six.
