Abstract: In the internet era, Intelligent Transportation Sys-tem (ITS) for smart cities is gaining tremendous attention since it offers intelligent smart services for traffic monitoring and management with the help of different technologies such as micro-electronics, sensors and IoT. However, in the existing literature, very few attempts are made towards effective traffic monitoring at road junctions in terms of providing faster decision making so that the traffic present in heavily congested urban environments can be dynamically rerouted. In order to tackle this issue, this article proposes a new Controller framework that can be applied at junction-points in order to the control the traffic movement. Specifically, the proposed framework utilizes a multi-logic ruleset database to estimate the traffic density dynamically at the first stage followed by the usage of signal-time computation algorithm at the second stage in order to streamline the traffic and achieve faster clearance at the junction-points. The experimental results conducted with the help of test environment using MEMSIC nodes clearly demonstrate the improved efficiency of the proposed framework in terms various performance metrics including move command frequency, ruleset score and fluctuation score.
