Traffic control refers to the control measures taken to control the passage of vehicles and people in some or all traffic sections for some safety reasons. Generally speaking, traffic restrictions are mainly temporary provisions in the case of assembly and procession, large-scale sports meeting, road and bridge construction, emergency rescue and disaster relief, and implementation of important security tasks.

Extended data:

Traffic control is a specific regulation of guiding, prohibiting, restricting or instructing the traffic of vehicles and pedestrians on the road and other traffic-related activities formulated by the traffic management department of the public security organ according to laws and regulations. After the implementation of traffic control, citizens should abide by the control notice and actively cooperate with the traffic police department.

China's "Road Traffic Safety Law" stipulates that "the traffic management department of the public security organ may, according to the specific conditions of roads and traffic flows, take measures such as diverting, restricting traffic and prohibiting traffic for motor vehicles, non-motor vehicles and pedestrians. In case of large-scale mass activities and large-scale construction, etc. If it is necessary to take traffic restriction measures or make decisions directly related to public road traffic activities, it should be announced to the public in advance.
