Raising congestion in the road affects the goods movement and it creates economic problems in the country. newlineIn the past few decades, there are more innovations and advancements in science and technology, which help many fields witness exponential growth. Some fields like automobiles and manufacturing technology introduce various kinds of vehicles using the latest engineering technology from time to time. This technical development creates traffic congestion in the metropolitan cities and also it increases the level of uncertainty and indeterminacy in the traffic. To face this problem, intelligent traffic control technique is required. newline
