Abstract The problem of urban traffic congestion is the main thing that always gets attention because congestion has a negative impact on the economy, the environment, and vehicle drivers. Makassar City is one of the cities experiencing traffic congestion on several existing roads, including roads in the Losari Area. Various efforts have been made by the government to reduce traffic congestion in the area, but optimum results have not been obtained. In 2019, a change in the direction of traffic movement in the Losari area was done by implementing a traffic management called the New Traffic Management. Through this new scheme, changes are made in the direction of movement of traffic on Jalan Penghibur, Jalan Haji Bau, and Jalan Lamadukelleng. This study aims to analyze the performance of the New Traffic Management towards improving traffic conditions in the Losari Area. The results of this study indicate that the application of New Traffic Management in the Losari Area has succeeded in improving traffic conditions in the area. Through this new traffic management scheme, the three road sections observed have service level A. Keywords: traffic congestion, traffic management, service level  Abstrak Masalah kemacetan lalu lintas di perkotaan merupakan hal utama yang selalu mendapat perhatian karena kemacetan menimbulkan dampak negatif terhadap ekonomi, lingkungan, dan pengemudi kendaraan. Kota Makassar merupakan salah satu kota yang mengalami kemacetan lalu lintas di beberapa ruas jalan yang ada, termasuk jalan-jalan di kawasan Losari. Berbagai upaya telah dilakukan oleh pemerintah untuk mengurangi kemacetan lalu lintas di kawasan tersebut, tetapi belum diperoleh hasil yang optimum.

In order to achieve the purpose of improving the travel efficiency of commuters in the periphery of the city, expanding the beneficiary groups of urban rail transit, and alleviating urban road traffic congestion, when planning and setting up HOV in the periphery of the city, it is necessary to analyze the feasibility of HOV lane setting from both the demand conditions and the setting conditions. This paper combines machine learning to construct a decision-making evaluation model for HOV lane setting and studies the optimal layout model and algorithm of HOV lanes in service rail transit commuter chain. The setting, planning, and layout of HOV lanes are a two-way interactive process of traveler's path selection and designer's road planning. Finally, after the model is constructed, the performance of the system model is verified. The results show that the system studied in this paper can be used for traffic data and lane planning analysis. Therefore, in the process of urban operation, the HOV model constructed in this paper is mainly used to alleviate urban traffic and improve urban operation efficiency.

In modern urban planning, traffic management and planning are considered essential elements in urban planning and design. In fact, there is an increasing need to consider and apply certain policies for traffic system improvement in the modern urban planning and management due to the important role of urban roads and their direct relationship with population growth in cities. The urbanization phenomenon in Iran and the increasing number of automobiles in its cities have led to an exponential growth in urban traffic, which is the main concern of urban managers in Tabriz Metropolis in this country. Considering the current conditions in Tabriz, this study attempts to evaluate the traffic management and planning strategies in this city. Desk and field research methods were used for data collection. The related data was then analyzed using SPSS through the one-sample t-test and regression analysis. The mean value of the studied indicators for traffic planning improvement is 4.56, which is higher than the average and indicates the important role of the factors affecting traffic control planning improvement in Tabriz. Finally, CORSIM was used to examine the high-traffic areas of Tabriz and evaluate the traffic volume reduction rate in this city.

In urban planning, governments usually hold the decision-making power to shape not only city landscapes but also people's lives with the promoted goals of social welfare. Although states expect their own version of ideal scenarios in mind when carrying out infrastructural developments, after competition, people in reality have their own ways of perceiving and utilizing state-made infrastructures and urban transportation, sometimes in alignment with government plan, and sometimes at odds with it. Abu Dhabi is one of the cities in the world in which the government planned out the whole city and created urban infrastructure from scratch, including the city bus system. Although the Abu Dhabi public buses started operating in 2008, car dependency is still high and many residents consider public buses to be inefficient and time consuming and only used by certain immigrant working population.

The population is increasing rapidly, due to which the number of vehicles has increased, but the transportation system has not yet developed as development occurred in technologies. Currently, the lowest capacity and old infrastructure of roads do not support the amount of vehicles flow which cause traffic congestion. The purpose of this survey is to present the literature and propose such a realistic traffic efficiency model to collect vehicular traffic data without roadside sensor deployment and manage traffic dynamically. Today’s urban traffic congestion is one of the core problems to be solved by such a traffic management scheme. Due to traffic congestion, static control systems may stop emergency vehicles during congestion. In daily routine, there are two-time slots in which the traffic is at peak level, which causes traffic congestion to occur in an urban transportation environment. Traffic congestion mostly occurs in peak hours from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. when people go to offices and students go to educational institutes and when they come back home from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. The main purpose of this survey is to provide a taxonomy of different traffic management schemes for avoiding traffic congestion. The available literature categorized and classified traffic congestion in urban areas by devising a taxonomy based on the model type, sensor technology, data gathering techniques, selected road infrastructure, traffic flow model, and result verification approaches. Consider the existing urban traffic management schemes to avoid congestion and to provide an alternate path, and lay the foundation for further research based on the IoT using a Mobile crowd sensing-based traffic congestion control model. Mobile crowdsensing has attracted increasing attention in traffic prediction. In mobile crowdsensing, the vehicular traffic data are collected at a very low cost without any special sensor network infrastructure deployment. Mobile crowdsensing is very popular because it can transmit information faster, collect vehicle traffic data at a very low cost by using motorists’ smartphone or GPS vehicular embedded sensor, and it is easy to install, requires no special network deployment, has less maintenance, is compact, and is cheaper compared to other network options.

Now a days, toll plazas at the highways are operated manually, where a vehicle comes near the toll booth and toll collector collects the cash and enter the vehicle data and provides a receipt. Manually operated Toll Plaza Systems leads to longer waiting time of vehicles and heavy traffic at the highways. To overcome this issue of traffic congestion and time management and to bring automation in the toll management system, we have introduced an innovative, optimized and revolutionary system. This paper is putting forward an efficient and cost-effective technique of automatic toll collection. The system is based on the mobile GPS network and will use various APIs for development. The cost to be paid at the toll gate is auto decided as per the government limits and the toll booth charges. System will use online payment gateways to collect those revenues. If the balance is low in the user’s account then it can be recharged at the booth itself. At the user’s end, If the toll tax payment is delayed by certain timeline then user will be informed by an alert message and if delay still exists then strict actions will be imposed along with proper penalty charges for the same. This system is the novelty to the existing toll system. It will have a wide impact on people's life as its scope will lead to safe and enhanced productivity through the use of advanced technologies. This will also minimize fraud and will provide user convenience. It will also enhance the operational efficiency of toll collector.
