 ABSTRACT

As cities grow in size, the number of vehicular trips on road system goes up. This leads to great
problems in traffic system. In many big cities all over the world increase in the traffic leads to
various problems mainly traffic jams due to traffic congestion.

The main objective of this project is to solve traffic jam which is a severe problem in many
modern cities all over the world. This is done by identifying the range of the traffic jam and the
respected measures were taken to clear the traffic.

For this we are using three sensors to sense the traffic pulse, if three sensors are sensed means
traffic is get heavy and buzzer gets sound for detection of traffic jam. When sensor senses
obstacle and simultaneously buzzer sounds.LCD unit for the Microcontroller (Intel 8051) to
enable the whole operation by executing the program. Optionally it is also possible to trip the
unit in the event of higher voltage or current.
