In this paper we propose a method for determining traffic congestion on roads using image processing techniques and a model for controlling traffic signals based on information received from images of roads taken by video camera. We extract traffic density which corresponds to total area occupied by vehicles on the road in terms of total amount of pixels in a video frame instead of calculating number of vehicles. We set two parameters as output, variable traffic cycle and weighted time for each road based on traffic density and control traffic lights in a sequential manner.
