Abstract

The ‘Revolutionizing Portable Traffic Light (RPTL)’ is designed to replace flagmen working in construction zones by offering a safer and more efficient way to manage traffic. One of the main issues successfully addressed by this project is replacing flagmen who are often exposed to accidents and weather changes while controlling traffic. The goal of this project is to create a traffic light system with its own algorithm, integrated with LoRa technology, which allows it to communicate wirelessly even at long distances between the two traffic lights and ensures a stable connection. This system also uses ultrasonic sensors to detect vehicles on the road and helps identify more congested areas, allowing the traffic light to prioritize those areas. The project also includes an automated system that detects vehicles using ultrasonic sensors. When a vehicle is detected, the traffic light will turn green, and it will calculate how many vehicles have entered the road, ensuring that the number of vehicles entering and exiting is the same. If both roads have vehicles at the same time, the traffic light will prioritize the 'master' light to enter the construction zone first. Once completed, it will give way to the 'slave' light to enter the construction zone. In conclusion, this mobile traffic light system with ultrasonic detection and LoRa connectivity represents a significant advancement in traffic management improvements.
