Liberty Lahore as an Urban Area faces many challenges related to traffic so some active management suggestions for traffic control.

1. COMPREHENSIVE REPORT:
ACTIVE TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT FOR
URBAN AREAS - FOCUSING ON LIBERTY,
LAHORE
REPRESENTED BY: KOKAB AZAZ
ROLL NO.: 2021-TE-19

2. Objective:
Develop adaptive
traffic
management
strategies.
Mitigate
congestion at
Liberty during
peak hours.
Provide equitable
access for
competing user
groups.

3. Detailed Problem Analysis:
Issue Impact
Limited adaptability in
control systems
Severe congestion during peak
demand.
Inefficient utilization of
infrastructure
Traffic moved faster than
absorption rate, causing
congestion.
Accessibility challenges for
user groups
Competing users face difficulties
accessing facilities.

4. LIBERTY CURRENT TRAFFIC
PARAMETERS:
 Average Daily Traffic Volume: 50,000
vehicles
 Peak Hour Traffic Volume: 6,000
vehicles
 Morning Peak Hour (8:00 AM - 9:00
AM): 15,000 vehicles
 Evening Peak Hour (5:00 PM - 6:00
PM): 20,000 vehicles

7. RECOMMENDATIONS

8. 1. REAL-TIME TRAFFIC MONITORING:
 Implement smart sensors and
cameras for real-time traffic
monitoring at Liberty.
 Utilize AI algorithms to
analyse and predict traffic
patterns.

9. Vehicle Count, Traffic Density
Determination along with Emergency
Vehicle Detection- An algorithm has
been developed which has been
trained for detection of vehicles and
emergency vehicles using the
EfficientDet-Lite 0 model. Figure 1 Using TensorFlow lite, optimize for
speed and storage. Help in detection of non-
emergency and emergency vehicles as
trained according to custom dataset.

10. 2. DYNAMIC LANE MANAGEMENT:
Introduce dynamic lane
management at Liberty
to adapt to changing
traffic volumes.
Implement variable
lane assignments
based on real-time
traffic demand.

11. TIDAL FLOW SYSTEM
Dynamic management of lanes for one direction on road
sections.

12. Lane clearance ahead of road-
works sites:
Variable message signs (VMS) or dynamic
prisms are used here to protect work teams on
the roads/ motorways.

13. 3. TRAFFIC GUIDANCE SYSTEMS:
Install dynamic electronic
signs at Liberty to guide
drivers with real-time
information.
Utilize variable message
signs to suggest
alternative routes during
congestion.

14. • The Led information display
board are used extensively
where optimising the flow of
vehicles or pedestrians is of
strategic importance

15. 4. PUBLIC COMMUNICATION:
Establish a communication
system at Liberty to inform
the public about current
traffic conditions.
Utilize mobile apps and
social media to
disseminate real-time
updates.

16. • For Example, this
application Tells the
user where traffic is so
that vehicles change
lane before entering

17. CONCLUSION:
The proposed strategies offer a comprehensive solution to
optimize traffic flow, reduce delays, and enhance overall
efficiency. The potential effectiveness of these strategies make
them a convincing investment for the improvement of urban
traffic systems.
