Design & Developing of a Microcontroller Based Intelligent Traffic Control System

Abstract

The number of vehicles is gradually increasing day by day all over the world. Vehicles are also increasing in the metropolitan cities of Bangladesh. As a result huge traffic congestions and traffic jam is increasing day by day. For traffic congestions a huge amount of time is being wasted by the citizen of metropolitan area. In this project an intelligent traffic control system is developed by us to minimize the congestions of traffic system. Here the traffic signal will be automatically control by the system. The road will be open for moving forward or close for moving forward is controlled by the system in real time and as necessary. When a certain number of vehicle is stuck in the traffic signal then the other part of the path will be show red signal and the congested path’s signal will be Green. After a few time when the first path will reach a certain number of vehicle then the second path’s signal will turn into red and the first path’s signal will turn into green. Our intelligent traffic control system can detect temperature of the environment also. And the information about signal and temperature will send to the certain vehicle holder by Short Message Service (SMS).
