According to one embodiment, a road traffic management device includes an acquisition unit, a traffic information generator, a congestion degree calculator, and a fixed-cycle traveling support unit. The acquisition unit acquires a traveling position and a taken image, the traveling position being a position of a vehicle for traveling on an exclusive lane that operates on an exclusive lane, the taken image being obtained by imaging the exclusive lane and surroundings of the exclusive lane with an imaging unit of the vehicle for traveling on an exclusive lane at the traveling position. The traffic information generator generates traffic information about the surroundings of the exclusive lane based on the taken image and the traveling position. The congestion degree calculator calculates a congestion degree around the vehicle for traveling on an exclusive lane at the traveling position based on the taken image and the traveling position. When the calculated congestion degree is equal to or higher than a predetermined congestion degree that interferes with an operation of the vehicle for traveling on an exclusive lane, the fixed-cycle traveling support unit performs fixed-cycle traveling support processing for supporting the operation of the vehicle for traveling on an exclusive lane at a fixed cycle. 11738480_1 (GHMatters) P107979.AU
