Abstract
Traffic congestion is one of the most prevalent problems on the streets in urban areas, especially at intersections that are not properly controlled, so it causes problems in the flow of traffic and the disruption of the streets. Many new solutions has been proposed Which have been used intelligently and more dynamically than previous solutions. This paper proposes an intelligent control system, which uses a traffic light method called Dynamic Webster with Dynamic Cycle Time, which runs by software simulation of four-phase of the intersection. Emphasis was placed on the cycle time interval and the flow rate when compared (Dynamic Webster with Dynamic Cycle Time) with the rest of the previous methods. This paper concludes with what has been deduced and what can be improved in these methods.
