Abstract: Genetic Algorithm (GA) is implemented and simulation tested for the purpose of adaptable traffic lights management at four roads-intersection. The employed GA uses hybrid Boltzmann Selection (BS) and Roulette Wheel Selection techniques (BS-RWS). Selection Pressure (SP) and Population (Pop) parameters are used to tune and balance the designed GA to obtain optimized and correct control of passing vehicles. A very successful implementation of such parameters resulted in obtaining minimum number of Iterations (IRN) for a wide spectrum of SP and Pop. The algorithm is mathematically modeled and analyzed and a proof is obtained regarding the condition for balanced GA. Such Balanced GA is most useful in traffic management for an optimized Intelligent Transportation Systems, as it requires minimum iterations for convergence with faster dynamic controlling time.
