The increasing in the number of vehicles on streets has led to traffic congestion. In order to reduce the waiting time in cases of emergency, the idea of this work is suggested. This work is divided into two parts, the particular part and software part. The first circular particular part is a model which consists of four lanes junction of a traffic light, it also has GSM system ( Global System for Mobile Communications). The GSM and lamps of the traffic light are connected to Arduino UNO. The Arduino controls every signal which is coming from the inputs (GSM) to software and display to the outputs (lamps) The second circular particular part is a model which consist same components the first circuit except replace the GSM with IR(infrared Remote).The goal from this work is to help us in the emergence cases, the opening and closing of the traffic light are controlled by using GSM system and IR, the time of each lane, is controlled that means reduce the crowding.
