Google AI traffic lights expand to 12 cities and 70 intersections

IT House News on October 10th, Google announced that the Green Light Plan has been implemented at 70 intersections in 12 cities including Haifa, Rio de Janeiro and Bangalore, helping save up to 30 million car trips per month fuel and reduce emissions, it will be rolled out to more cities around the world next year. Early data from the Green Light scheme suggests stops will be reduced by up to 30% and emissions at intersections could be reduced by up to 10%.

Please note: Estimates of stop reductions are based on early data points from Google’s analysis of traffic patterns before and after proposed traffic signal adjustments, which would be implemented during the 2022 and 2023 testing period

IT House noted that the Google Green Light Project uses artificial intelligence and Google Maps driving trends to simulate traffic patterns and make recommendations for optimizing existing traffic light plans. By optimizing one intersection, coordinating multiple adjacent intersections to create waves of green lights, and analyzing thousands of intersections simultaneously,

Improve flow at multiple intersections in a city.

Before implementing the Green Light program, Google’s city partners tried to optimize traffic lights using expensive sensors or time-consuming manual vehicle counting, and these solutions did not provide the complete information needed on the key parameters.
