Meituan, in collaboration with Suzhou authorities, has launched a new feature called "Wait for Red Light Meter" for its delivery riders. This system individually tracks the time riders spend waiting at red lights, automatically extending their delivery deadlines accordingly. The feature, which began testing in Suzhou with approximately 1,100 intersections, relies on real-time traffic light data and rider location signals. Meituan plans to roll out this functionality to over 20 cities, including Beijing and Wuxi, with others like Shanghai and Hangzhou evaluating its implementation. AI
IMPACT This feature aims to improve delivery rider efficiency and fairness by accounting for traffic signal delays.
