Abstract

The increase of traffic is one of today's problems. Numerous cities are affected by traffic congestion and the increase of emissions from fuel use. They have a negative impact on economy, environment and overall on the quality of life. It is necessary to find intelligent solutions for road traffic management. The interest for intelligent traffic systems appeared at the beginning of the 20th century. There are various methods available for traffic management such as inductive loop detection, infrared sensors, video data analysis etc. The purpose of this paper is to present an approach of optimization tool using in order to decrease the traffic congestion and the crossing time of a road network.
