Traffic congestion reduces efficiency, increases travel time, causes air pollution and increases fuel consumption. Due to development in transportation network it also leads to increase in number of road accidents all over India. This paper, attempts to understand the application of INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM (ITS) as a solution of present traffic congestion problem and how to decrease road accidents by the use of technology. This paper will also explain various ITS applications and policy measures in India context and a brief about the issuses and challenges of ITS in INDIA.
