With increasing urbanization, traffic congestion, inefficient traffic light timings, and accidents have become major concerns for cities. According to the UN, nearly 68% of the global population will reside in urban areas by 2050, making it crucial for cities to manage traffic flow effectively, especially in densely populated areas. As traffic volumes rise, efficient traffic signal management becomes essential to prevent gridlocks and ensure smooth vehicle movement.
Currently, managing traffic lights in urban areas is a significant challenge. The traditional traffic light systems often fail to adapt to the dynamic flow of traffic, leading to congestion and delays. Emergency vehicles, such as fire trucks and ambulances, face delays due to these inefficiencies, impacting response times and public safety.
An Internet of Things (IoT)-based Traffic Signal Monitoring System (TSMS) addresses these issues by leveraging smart algorithms and IoT technology to control and monitor traffic signals efficiently. This system uses sensors, cameras, RFID readers, and remote sensors to track vehicle movement in real-time. By integrating Geographic Information System (GIS) technology, it provides accurate traffic data and helps optimize signal timings to reduce congestion.
The benefits of IoT-based traffic signal monitoring include: Reduced gridlock at intersections Continuous monitoring of traffic flow Improved emergency vehicle clearance Efficient vehicle tracking with RFID Real-time traffic management for better urban mobility By implementing an IoT-based system, cities can ensure faster response times for emergency vehicles, reduce traffic congestion, and enhance overall road safety.
