 Orderly traffic flow : they provide a structured and organized way for vehicles
and and pedestrians to navigate intersection , preventing congestion and
gridlock.
 Efficiency : traffic lights optimize the allocation of time for different direction of
traffic , improving the overall efficiency of transportation networks.
 Pedestrian safety : they include pedestrian signals , which enhance safety by
allowing pedestrian to cross streets at designated times.

 DISADVANTAGES OF TRAFFIC
LIGHT
 Traffic congestion : at times, traffic lights can contribute to congestion, especially
during peak hours, by causing delays and long wait times at intersections.
 Energy consumption : traffic lights require electricity to operate, and
their continuous use can contributed to energy consumption and associated costs.
 Maintenance costs : maintaining and repairing traffic lights can be expensive and
malfunctions of outages can lead to traffic disrupations.
 Lack of flexibility : fixed signals timings may not always adapt well to
changing traffic conditions leading to inefficiencies.
 Visual pollution : in urban areas, the large number of traffic lights and their associated
infrastructure can contribute to visual pollution.
