The increase in the number of the vehicles causes the problems of traffic jam along with the hazards to the environment. The sustainable development of any country needs the roads to withstand the heavy vehicles and increasing number continuously. Most of the times the traffic signals are found off or not working properly and hence there is a need of addressing the problem with the help of a smart system for traffic control.
