TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT SYSTEM: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW OF LITERATURE

This systematic review evaluates literature on urban traffic management systems with a focus on mid-sized
cities, contextualized by the case of Digos City, Philippines. Using the PRISMA framework, 15 studies
published between 2015 and 2025 were selected from an initial pool of 412 records. Key themes identified
include ordinance effectiveness, enforcement capacity, public engagement, infrastructure quality, and
technological integration. Findings highlight the need for updated policies, stronger institutional coordination,
and smart mobility solutions. The review offers evidence-based policy recommendations for improved traffic
outcomes in similar urban contexts.
