A Smart Approach for Traffic Management

Abstract

This paper is aimed at designing a density based dynamic traffic signal system where the timing of signal will change automatically on sensing the traffic density at any junction using the IoT technology. Traffic congestion is a severe problem in most cities across the world and therefore it is time to shift more manual mode or fixed timer mode to an automated system with decision making capabilities. To optimize this problem, we have made a framework for an intelligent traffic control system. Sometimes higher traffic density at one side of the junction demands longer green time as compared to standard allotted time. We therefore propose here a mechanism in which the time period of green light and red light is assigned on the basis of the density of the traffic present at the time. This is achieved by using LIDAR sensors. In addition, when the emergency services are present on the particular lane, the clearance is given to that lane. This is achieved by providing a wifi module in the emergency vehicles. The SSID of the vehicle is scanned by Node MCU at the traffic pole and clearance is given.
