Rapid urbanization and population growth have led to severe traffic congestion, delays, and increased pollution in modern cities. To address these challenges, this paper proposes an Intelligent Traffic Management System (ITMS) based on the Internet of Things (IoT). The system integrates smart sensors, cameras, and wireless communication technologies to monitor real-time traffic flow, vehicle density, and signal status across intersections. The collected data is transmitted to a centralized cloud platform for processing and analysis. Using this information, the system dynamically controls traffic signals to optimize vehicle movement, reduce waiting time, and minimize fuel consumption. Additionally, IoT-enabled alert mechanisms provide early warnings about accidents, roadblocks, or emergency vehicle movement to ensure smoother traffic operations. The proposed system enhances road safety, improves transportation efficiency, and contributes to the development of sustainable smart cities. Experimental simulations demonstrate that IoT-based traffic control significantly outperforms traditional fixed-timer systems in managing congestion and reducing travel time.
