Vehicle Density based Traffic Signal Light There has been a need to automatically control things from a distance depending on a certain timing logic. In recent past there had been many instances of accidents on the roads‚ at the crossings near the colonies for the fact that there were no streetlights ON in the night when the visibility of the driver is poor. Even at the junctions such as T-junction‚ Y-junctions or circle we should be able to distribute the traffic in such way that

THE TRAFFIC SAFETY PROBLEM IN URBAN AREAS J. ARCHER1 and K. VOGEL2 1 CTR‚ Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan‚ Stockholm‚ Sweden; 2 VTI‚ Linköping‚ Sweden E-mail: jeffery.archer@infra.kth.se; katja.vogel@vti.se As the number of people who reside and work in urban areas increases‚ so‚ too‚ do the needs and demands placed on the infrastructure. This has led to severe congestion in many European cities‚ a situation which affects not only the environment in terms of pollution‚ but most notably levels

The only way to reduce the amount of traffic in cities today is by reducing the need for people to travel from home for work‚ education or shopping. To what extent do you agree or disagree In my personal opinion‚ I would like to believe that traffic congestions are inevitably linked to the degree of urbanization. There are both simple and complex ways to combat this matter. Some environmentalists believe that the only method to curb this problem would be by reducing the need to travel for work

ABSTRACT Problem of traffic congestion in our country‚ especially Hanoi Capital and Ho Chi Minh City which has been the matter for Government and people to pay great attention to. This study was set up by three main parts‚ which is the current state of traffic led to its consequences‚ the main reason causing this problem and solution to solve it. The two largest cities in Vietnam are the ideal place to study and work so that the number of inhabitants has seen a sharp increased recently. Result in

motor vehicle collisions‚ are the leading cause of death for individuals under age 44. The presence of alcohol is the factor most frequently associated with fatalities in vehicles‚ drownings‚ falls‚ and fire (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services‚ 1987). In the first report to Congress on traffic safety and alcohol (U.S. Department of Transportation‚ 1968)‚ it was concluded that more than 50 percent of fatal traffic collisions and 33 percent of serious injury traffic collisions were alcohol-related

Introduction Highway traffic operations are influenced by the behavior of drivers. A highway can be used by a finite number of vehicles‚ and the driver perceived safe distances between vehicles determine this limit. For a given speed‚ as distances become shorter‚ more vehicles can use the highway. Both the volume of drivers choosing to use the highway (demand) and the maximum volume that can be served (supply) depend on driver behavior. Congestion results from too many people attempting to reach

Solar Powered Traffic Light Solar traffic lights are signaling devices powered by solar panels positioned at road intersections‚ pedestrian crossings and other locations to control the flows of traffic. They assign the right of way to road users by the use of lights in standard colors (red - amber/yellow - green)‚ using a universal color code (and a precise sequence to enable comprehension by those who are color blind). Most of the solar traffic lights have battery back-up for functioning during
