Congestion Management Systems

Congestion Management Systems are organized strategies used by transportation agencies to reduce traffic jams and improve flow on roads and highways. They monitor real-time traffic conditions, identify areas with high congestion, and then implement measures such as adjusting traffic signals, advising alternative routes, or controlling vehicle entry. The goal is to make travel smoother, safer, and more efficient, especially during peak times or in busy areas. These systems help keep traffic moving by proactively managing congestion rather than just reacting after problems occur.
