Traffic congestion is a pressing issue in urban centers worldwide, leading to significant economic losses and environmental impacts. This study investigates the implementation of adaptive signal control systems (ASCS) as a solution to enhance traffic flow efficiency at intersections. Utilizing a combination of simulation models and real-time traffic data collected over six months, we analyzed the performance of ASCS in comparison to traditional fixed-time control systems. Our findings reveal a marked reduction in average vehicle delay by 25%, with a corresponding increase in throughput by 30% across tested intersections. Furthermore, a comparative analysis highlighted that ASCS significantly mitigated peak hour congestion. This research contributes valuable insights into optimizing urban traffic management strategies by leveraging technological advancements in signal control systems.
