Abstract

One of the biggest problem in urbanized areas is traffic congestion. Many a times, the green signal would be shown to empty roads while a busy lane waiting. Ambulance and fire brigades also get stuck in traffic jams. The prevailing traffic control system does not help to solve these problems effectively as they function in open loop with no feedback of traffic data such as vehicle density. To overcome this disadvantage, the traffic system should be able to detect, which lane is busier than the other lanes and whether an ambulance is stuck in that lane. This capacity is given to the traffic system using IR sensors placed strategically along the lane to determine the traffic density and using RFID tags implanted in ambulance, fire brigades to give priority for their passage over vehicles of other lanes.
