Abstract

Reconstruction and maintenance of road is unavoidable and has always been a safety hazard if there is no safety system during the process. Therefore, humans or traffic light were normally used to control the safety system of a road lane. However those method pose some flaws in term of effectiveness, reliability and cost. For example, common problem faced when using labourers are regarding to their safety, careless and selfish driver often cause injury and accidents to this labourers. Besides that, cost also is a major factor where company often try to avoid using labourers to increase profit margin and prefer to use automated system. This paper presents a new design and development of Portable wireless Traffic Light to replace labourers and improve the existing traffic light system. An Arduino UNO board, sensors and lights were used to command the entire control system and perform the automatic functions of the PWTL machine. Software development and testing were conducted to determine which hardware components could be utilized for this project. Based on the analysis and result, this machine is able to save motorist delay by a little amount and also low the risk of vehicle accident in the work zone. In conclusion, PWTL machine is able to cut cost by reducing the amount of labourers required to manage the safety system. Moreover, less workers and labourer are less likely to involved in an accident or injury thanks to the automated PWTL system that eliminates the risk of using humans.
