User Story

In a city, the traffic lights are important part of traffic management. A traffic commissioner needs to
monitor the traffic at each light. Based on the accidents or road work, the diversions need to be planned.
Also, the commissioner needs to monitor if any light needs maintenance or if they are malfunctioning, and
take the necessary action accordingly. The traffic flow needs to be monitored and if any drastic change in
the traffic flow or a pattern of flow is being followed then the frequency of light change need to be
programmed accordingly.
Performing these day to day activities by the traffic commissioner and his team is very vital in order to
keep the city transit system calm and optimized. This also makes sure that other departments of the
urban planning and commission could complete their planned activities.
To perform these activities a member of the team need to be communicated about the other department
plans. For any maintenance, the team members need to inspect each and every lights manually on their
performance through their control stations. The traffic in any city is increasing three folds or four folds year
on year. There is a need for an aid and tool to quickly get information or analysis on these lights so that
the commissioner team can act upon.
