In the current scenario, rapid increase in the population and urban mobility in metropolitan cities like Bangalore, Mumbai, Chennai, Delhi congestion of vehicles often occur on the roads. The streets are becoming more populous making traffic congestion a serious issue to be solved. To tackle this issue of unwanted traffic congestion on roads, innovative and efficient thinking is required to develop a solution to this problem. Applications involving the use of the Internet of Things (IoT) have been growing around the world. Implementing these techniques will give us the full advantage of developing an efficient model to control this traffic congestion. Traffic can be controlled by either using traffic light or traffic police. The traditional traffic light methods are not an efficient way of controlling traffic anymore, a smart and automated traffic light system is required to overcome this problem. A smart traffic light system that will monitor the congestion level using sensors could be a possible solution to manage the traffic congestion. In the conventional method, each traffic signal has a fixed duration that cannot be varied based on the traffic density in each lane. This smart traffic light system can be replaced with the traditional system where the go time of each lane can be varied depending on the density of vehicles present in the respective lanes. In this type of control system, the traffic light Scheduling and durations are dynamically controlled. This technology aims to smoothen the flow of vehicles, reduce the waiting time and queue length at a traffic signal.
