What is traffic management?

Traffic management involves the systematic planning, organization, and control of movement for vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists to ensure safety, efficiency, and optimal flow within transportation networks.

What are the main goals of traffic management?

Its primary goals are to reduce congestion, improve safety, minimize travel times, enhance accessibility, decrease environmental impact, and optimize the overall efficiency of transportation systems.

How do Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) help manage traffic?

ITS utilizes advanced technologies like sensors, cameras, and communication networks to collect real-time data, enabling dynamic control of signals, incident detection, electronic tolling, and traveler information for better flow.

What are common strategies to reduce traffic congestion?

Strategies include adaptive traffic signals, public transit promotion, carpooling incentives, HOV lanes, demand management (e.g., congestion pricing), and improved road infrastructure planning.
