    Traffic congestion is a critical concern in most cities. Inefficient traffic control wastes time and fuel and causes harmful carbon emissions, road accidents, and many economic problems. This thesis focuses on a cooperative traffic control framework for optimizing the travel time also for a better uniform traffic Flow in multiple intersections of Mirpur Road. To reach the goal, we firstly select four intersections from Mirpur road. The number of upward and downward vehicles in each intersection will be calculated for three scheduled times of the day. We need to count traffic volume in order to better portrait the congestion scenario. Then we shall transform the count data to PCU (Passenger Car Unit) based on a standard reference. At the same time, each intersection co-ordinate has to be extracted to draw the polygon line using ArcGIS application in order to simulate the traffic volume dynamically over the days of data collection. Finally, we will obtain the simulation output which will help to represent the current traffic situation on the Mirpur road. However, the data count may not be decent enough to portrait the actual situation yet this could be a helpful approach for proceeding towards the digitalization of the traffic count on a real scale. Thus, in future studies this approach can be utilized to determine the procedure for automation of traffic signals as well as implementing state of the art concepts for an alleviated congestion scenario.
