 HOW DO TRAFFIC SIGNALS
WORK?

UTCN © 2018
TRAFFIC LIGHTS

Composed of:
• Controller

• Traffic light heads

• Detection

UTCN © 2018
WORKING MODES

• Two common modes:

• 1.Fixed Time

AUTOMATED TRAFFIC CONTROL SYSTEM

• Designed to control traffic and pedestrian flows in small and

large cities.
• AGAT ATCS is currently in: Belarus (Minsk, Baranovichi,
Grodno) and Russian Federation (Kaliningrad, Novosibirsk).
• There exist also another “smart cities” which have this concept
implemented, but by another manufacturers.

 FEATURES
• performs continuous monitoring of traffic flow parameters in the city road
network with the help of multiple vehicle detectors of all types (inductive,
radar, infrared and video detectors)
• adaptive traffic control is performed according to the measured
parameters
• drivers are informed about the recommended speed, with the help of
electronic speed indicators
• drivers and pedestrians are informed about the duration of the green and
red light signals, existing or potential traffic jams and possible bypasses

 COMPONENTS

• hardware-software complex of the main control center (MCC);

• channelizing equipment: zone controllers (KZTs-M1), cellular modems;
• peripheral equipment for traffic signal installations: traffic lights controllers,
vehicle detectors, speed indicators and other controlled signs, information
boards and pedestrian call indicators, traffic lights.

 ADVANTAGES

• Achieve optimal road traffic control solutions by combining human potential

with the system’s intellect;
• Design and evaluate the efficiency of control modes using advanced
techniques;
• Develop effective recommendations on the employment of traffic control
facilities in terms of cost and quality.

UTCN © 2018
 ADVANTAGES

Increased efficiency of traffic control, including:

• Increased efficiency of the road network;
• Decreased number of delays at crossroads (by 20-25%);
• Reduced petrol and lubricant consumption (by 5-15%);
• Reduced atmospheric pollution (reduction of exhaust of carbon dioxide,
hydrocarbon, nitric oxide and other harmful substances by 5-10%);
• Increased road safety;
• Reduced time in travel (by 10-15%);
• Video monitoring of situation at nodes with most intense traffic.
