The use of traffic signals is the common practice in every cities having heavy traffic volume that is on clogged intersection. The signal phases are different at various intersections. The cycle time also differs as per traffic density at each intersection. Out somewhere it happens that there is green signal & no vehicle on the route and despite that somewhere there is long queue although there is red signal. The proposed system first targets scattering any queue that was developed during red span and reduction in travel time. This study leads to the change in phases and redesign of present signal system, which not only gives a reduction in the queue length but also reduces travel time and decrease in fuel consumption. This change will positively results in improving traffic efficiency.
