Adaptive traffic control system

An adaptive traffic control system intelligently manages traffic lights based on real-time traffic conditions. Using sensors and cameras, it monitors vehicle flow and adjusts signal timings dynamically to reduce congestion and improve traffic movement. Unlike traditional timed lights, which operate on preset schedules, adaptive systems respond to current conditions, prioritizing heavier flows and easing delays. This technology enhances traffic efficiency, reduces frustration, and can even lower emissions by decreasing idle times, creating smoother and safer journeys for drivers and pedestrians alike.
