This document summarizes a student project to control a two-directional traffic light using a PLC. It introduces the use of traffic lights to control vehicle and pedestrian traffic. Timers are used to provide time delays to control the light sequences. A ladder logic diagram is programmed with contacts that simulate relays to control the red and green lights for each of the three poles in sequences, with one pole green at a time for a set period before moving to the next pole. The process then repeats continuously to control traffic flow in both directions.
