Design and build a traffic control system for a four way intersection where a single lane two way undivided side road crosses a two lane divided main road. The main road has lights for going straight as well as turning left traffic. The side road has only one light used by straight or turning left traffic. The traffic controller needs to cover the following scenarios (ignore the intermediate yellow/orange light): 1. Initialize the system with green light for the traffic going straight on the main road. 2. The traffic light on the main road remains green until one of the following conditions are met: a. A time of four minutes has elapsed since any light turned green on the main road. b. A time of three minutes has elapsed since any light turned green and there are three or more cars waiting on the side road. 3. Once the side road has a green light, it remains green for exactly 30 seconds before turning the control back to the main road. 4. Green light for the left turning traffic is given before the green light for the straight traffic provided that there is at least one car in the left turn lane on either side of the main road. The left turn light remains green for one minute. Otherwise, the left turn light is skipped. 5. The green light for the traffic going straight on the main road remains green for three minutes if followed by a left turn light, and four minutes otherwise.

Design and build a traffic control system for a four way intersection where a single lane two
way undivided side road crosses a two lane divided main road. The main road has lights for
going straight as well as turning left traffic. The side road has only one light used by straight or
turning left traffic. The traffic controller needs to cover the following scenarios (ignore the
intermediate yellow/orange light):
1. Initialize the system with green light for the traffic going straight on the main road.
2. The traffic light on the main road remains green until one of the following conditions are
met:
a. A time of four minutes has elapsed since any light turned green on the main
road.
b. A time of three minutes has elapsed since any light turned green and there are
three or more cars waiting on the side road.
3. Once the side road has a green light, it remains green for exactly 30 seconds before
turning the control back to the main road.
4. Green light for the left turning traffic is given before the green light for the straight
traffic provided that there is at least one car in the left turn lane on either side of the
main road. The left turn light remains green for one minute. Otherwise, the left turn
light is skipped.
5. The green light for the traffic going straight on the main road remains green for three
minutes if followed by a left turn light, and four minutes otherwise.
