TRAFFIC

Traffic refers to the movement of automobiles, trucks, buses, motorcycles, bicycles, and pedestrians along a network of roads and highways. It is typically governed by traffic lights, signs, and road markings to keep order and to ensure the safety of all road users. The density of traffic can greatly vary depending on the time of day, location, and occurrence of special events or road construction. High traffic volumes can lead to congestion and delays, affecting travel time and fuel efficiency. Consequently, the planning and management of traffic is a major concern for both urban planning and transportation engineering.
