INTRODUCTION•Traffic congestion is a severe problem in many major cities across the world.•An adaptive traffic control system can be developed where the traffic load and emergency vehicles are continuously measured by sensors connected to a microcontroller-based system which also performs all intersection control functions. •Microcontroller based traffic control system is an application specific project, which is used to control the traffic.
DESCRIPTION
During normal time the signal timing changes automatically on sensing the traffic density at the junction but in case of any emergency vehicle like ambulance, fire brigade etc., requiring priority are built in with RF control to override the set timing by providing instantaneous green signal in the desired direction while blocking the other lanes by red signal for some time.

89C51
• The AT89C51 is a low-power, high-performance CMOS 8-bit microcomputer with 4K bytes of Flash programmable and erasable read only memory (PEROM).
• The Atmel AT89C51 is a powerful microcomputer which provides a highly-flexible and cost-effective solution to many embedded control applications.
ROAD MAP
•This project is implemented by placing IR modules and led’s at the 4 way junction, the four paths are represented as E,W,N,S.• IR modules along four paths, and LEDs are there for indication purpose.

ADVANTAGES
• During normal time the signal timing changes automatically on sensing the traffic density at the junction but in case of any emergency vehicle like ambulance, fire brigade etc., requiring priority are built in with RF control to override the set timing by providing instantaneous green signal in the desired direction while blocking the other lanes by red signal for some time.
• It reduces the possibilities of traffic jams caused by traffic lights to an extent.
CONCLUSION
By using this system configuration we can reduce the possibilities of traffic jams caused by traffic lights to an extent. The number of passing vehicles on the road decides the density range of traffics and on the basis of vehicle count microcontroller decides the traffic light delays.
