Effective transportation planning must take into account urban factors and public space in order to achieve sustainable and efficient solutions to transportation problems in urban areas. Public space includes not only parks, squares, and markets, but also sidewalks and roads. Properly managed transportation in public space can help minimize traffic congestion, ensure efficient and safe movement of vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists, and overall improve its quality.
The specific example which is frequently used in urban areas is adaptive traffic control system. It is able to automatically modify the length and frequency of green signals for individual directions depending on traffic situation. Adaptive traffic control uses sensors and camera systems that can detect traffic flow. Based on this data, they can modify traffic signal timing in real-time.
It is important to consider urban factors and public area when we are using adaptive traffic control, For example, traffic signals control system may prioritize the traffic flow of pedestrians, cyclists or public transport. This prioritization can contribute to a more balanced use of the public area, thereby improving its overall quality. They can also help improve smoother traffic flow, reducing traffic congestion and its impact on air quality and noise pollution in urban areas.
