OverviewPlease note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. A green wave is an intentionally induced phenomenon in which a series of traffic lights (usually three or more) are coordinated to allow continuous traffic flow over several intersections in one main direction. Any vehicle travelling along with the green wave (at an approximate speed decided upon by the traffic engineers) will see a progressive cascade of green lights, and not have to stop at intersections. This allows higher traffic loads, and reduces noise and energy use (because less acceleration and braking is needed). In practical use, only a group of cars (known as a platoon, the size of which is defined by the signal times) can use the green wave before the time band is interrupted to give way to other traffic flows.
