1.If we can synchronise all the traffic signals the traffic will be reduced by some extent. Many times it is observed that one signal is green but the following signal is red which leads to a blockage.So synchronising the signals is one solution. 2.If we can sense the traffic moving then the signals can be programmed accordingly i.e. the signal will turn green for the side having more volume of traffic.This can reduce the congestion.

The one and only smart idea to release congestion on roads is increasing the occupancy of the vehicles and reduce the number of vehicles on the road, achieved by trust ride sharing of empty vehicles, who is travel on the same direction. and also because of this plot form every vehicle ride directions will be displayed so that we came to know how much traffic exist at particular road and with our innovative predict mechanism we will intimate the drivers for less traffic road.share and save fuel.

To my task why can't we stop trains and vehicles outer the cities and come up with advance mode of transportation for inside the cities. May be movable escalators and electric short vehicles and surrounding the city with metors and monos. Even a short train over the road is feasable if the vehicles are stopped outside the city.
