Background of the Study
Traffic congestion and inefficient traffic management are major challenges in many Nigerian cities, leading to delays, increased fuel consumption, and heightened environmental pollution. The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) plays a key role in managing traffic flow, ensuring road safety, and reducing accidents in Nigerian cities. Traditional traffic management systems, however, are often overwhelmed by the complexity and dynamic nature of urban traffic. These systems struggle to process real-time data and optimize traffic signals and routes effectively.
Quantum computing, with its ability to process large datasets quickly and solve complex optimization problems, offers a new paradigm for traffic management. Quantum-based traffic management systems can analyze real-time traffic data, optimize traffic signal timings, and predict congestion patterns with greater accuracy. By implementing quantum algorithms, FRSC could potentially design a real-time traffic management system that addresses congestion and improves road safety in Nigerian cities.
This study aims to design and implement a quantum-based real-time traffic management system for Nigerian cities, focusing on how quantum computing can optimize traffic flow, reduce congestion, and enhance the overall efficiency of urban transport systems.
Statement of the Problem
Nigerian cities face significant traffic challenges, including congestion, delays, and accidents. Traditional traffic management systems are insufficient to cope with the increasing population and traffic volume in these cities. The Federal Road Safety Corps is tasked with improving traffic management, but the current system is limited in its ability to process real-time traffic data and optimize traffic flow. There is a need for innovative solutions to address these problems, and quantum computing offers a promising solution.
However, the adoption of quantum computing in real-time traffic management faces several challenges, including the lack of a quantum computing infrastructure, the complexity of integrating quantum algorithms into existing traffic management systems, and the need for specialized expertise. This study aims to investigate the feasibility and potential benefits of implementing a quantum-based traffic management system in Nigerian cities.
