Abstract

With the increase in human population in cities and therefore number of vehicles, traffic control signals have been playing significant role in managing traffic flow in cities. It provides safety and convenience to both drivers and pedestrians. However, traditional traffic control signals fails in time management, as it allocates equal time slots to each road it is managing. This creates unnecessary waiting for drivers, which could not be endurable in every case, as being in time, is important to everyone. Therefore, here we proposed density based traffic control signal, which allocates different time slots to each road according to vehicle density on it and therefore doing time management function. This system also comes with RF signal override control in case of emergency vehicles such as fire brigade, ambulance, etc. So this is also a priority based system. This system, therefore, offers advantages over ordinary traffic control signal.
