Abstract

A coordination of vehicles flows is usually reached by a cyclic operation of traffic lights and by synchronizing these cycles. During the past decades metro cities grows rapidly with industrialization, urbanization. This leads to the development of cities and a nation as well. Traffic jams, congestion becomes a major problem these days due to increase in number of vehicles. To cater these problems many approaches has been put forward to reduce the delays, congestion, stops and reduce the fuel consumption also. Particularly there is large fluctuations in number of vehicles arriving at green times which are too short or too long. In these paper attempt has been made to study various intersections so as to minimize the delays, stops and reduce fuel consumption to make a safe and healthy environment to some extend.
