Abstract
The present disclosure provides a method for controlling a traffic scheduling strategy in a smart city. The method includes obtaining traffic data information in a preset area during a current time period, the traffic data information at least including a speed of at least one vehicle on at least one road, predicting one or more target areas where traffic congestion is likely to occur from the preset area during a next time period based on the traffic data information in the preset area during the current time period, determining whether the traffic scheduling strategy is needed to be switched based on traffic data information in the one or more target areas during the next time period, and in response to determining that the traffic scheduling strategy is needed to be switched, switching a first traffic scheduling strategy to a second traffic scheduling strategy.
