Abstract
This paper compares two intersection traffic management mechanism —roundabouts and traffic lights. It focuses on the distinctive qualities to consider while picking the best possible choice. The paper emphasizes how choosing an acceptable traffic control measure necessitates considering the particular intersection setting and the distinctive qualities of competing alternatives. It concludes that selecting the best traffic control measure is essential for guaranteeing the efficient and safe flow of traffic through intersections and that traffic control measures will continue to advance alongside new technology and urban planning methods.
