When it comes to managing vehicular and pedestrian flow on public roads, traffic controls become essential. However, apart from the generic term, there are several other synonyms that can be used to refer to these mechanisms. Some common types include traffic management systems, traffic flow regulation, traffic guidance and control, traffic regulation devices, and roadway safety measures. Irrespective of the term used, these controls serve the same purpose of ensuring safe and orderly movement of traffic. These synonyms are used interchangeably in various regions and countries, with the mode of implementation varying depending on the traffic density and patterns.
