Reducing Urban Congestion via Real-Time Coordinated Traffic Signal Optimization
Urban traffic congestion has become one of the most persistent challenges for modern cities. Traditional traffic management systems, often relying on static signal timing, fail to respond to dynamic traffic patterns, sudden surges, or emergencies, resulting in inefficiencies, increased commute times, and elevated emissions. To address these challenges, cities increasingly turn to real-time coordinated traffic signal optimization, which integrates intelligent controllers, sensor networks, and data-driven algorithms to enhance flow and safety.
