Abstract – Designing an automated traffic management system with an emergency priority mechanism based on an ATmega328p Controller is the primary goal of this work. As a result of the population's constant growth, both the use of and the number of vehicles on the road are growing tremendously. The best strategy to regulate traffic at the junction and eliminate the need for physical labor is to employ standard traffic control devices. However, most of the time, when a particular path has more vehicles than the other paths, the standard traffic signals are unable to control the traffic well, which results in crowding and congestion on particular paths. As a result, the paper suggests using ultrasonic sensors to allocate green light based on vehicle density rather than simply allocating a fixed time interval to each road. This new system will also provide emergency vehicles such as ambulances and fire brigades with a priority pass, which is not available in the current system.
