Abstract: Traffic congestion is a serious problem nowadays, especially in Dhaka city. With the increasing population and automation, it has become one of the most critical issues in our country. There can be a lot of causes of congestion in traffic, such as insufficient capacity, large red signal delay, unrestrained demand, etc, which causes extra time delay, extra fuel consump-tion, a speed reduction of vehicle, and financial loss. The traffic control system is one of the most important factors affecting traffic flow. Poor traffic management around these hotspots could result in prolonged traffic jams. Small critical locations that are frequent hotspots for congestion are a common byproduct of poorly constructed road networks in many developing countries. In this research, we first offer a straightforward automated image processing method for analyzing CCTV camera image feeds to determine the level of traffic congestion. Our system’s design seeks to use real-time photos from the cams at traffic intersections to calculate traffic density using image processing, and to adjust the traffic signal on the data obtained based on the current traffic congestion on the road. We suggest tailoring our system to erratic traffic feeds with poor visual quality. Using live Surveillance camera feeds from multiple traffic signals in Dhaka city, we demonstrate evidence of this bottleneck breakdown tendency persisting over prolonged time frames across multiple locations. To partially address this problem, we offer a local adapting algorithm that coordinates signal timing behavior in a restricted area and can locally minimize congestion collapse by maintaining time-variant traffic surges. Using simulation-based research on basic network topologies, we show how our local decongestion protocol may boost the capacity of the road and avoid traffic collapse in limited scenarios.
