Abstract

Traffic light is a light that is used to regulate the smoothness of traffic at a road intersection by
allowing road users from each direction to walk alternately. Because of its essential function, traffic lights
must be controlled or controlled as quickly and efficiently as possible to smooth the flow of traffic at a
crossroads. Along with technological developments, the number of existing vehicles continues to increase so
that traffic on the highway is also getting denser. However, the current infrastructure development has not
followed suit. This development has an impact on the existing traffic system, namely in the design of setting
the timing of traffic light lighting. Most of the current traffic light system timing controls still use the timer
that is already installed in the system and does not have an on-time timing feature. This problem causes
operators not to be able to change the time of traffic lights in each direction at any time, to suit road conditions
and vehicle density on both roads. These are some of the disadvantages of controlling traffic light at this time.
