The population of city and numbers of vehicles on the road are increasing day by day. With increasing urban population and hence the number of vehicles, need of controlling streets, highways and roads is major issue. The main reason behind today’s traffic problem is the techniques that are used for traffic management. Today’s traffic management system has no emphasis on live traffic scenario, which leads to inefficient traffic management systems. This project has been implemented by using the Mat lab software and it aims to prevent heavy traffic congestion. Moreover, for implementing this project Image processing technique is used. At first, film of a lane is captured by a camera. A web camera is placed in a traffic lane that will capture images of the road on which we want to control traffic. Then these images are efficiently processed to know the traffic density. According to the processed data from mat lab, the controller will send the command to the traffic LEDs to show particular time on the signal to manage traffic
