Systems and methods of adaptive traffic control based on detected anomalies in traffic conditions and utilizing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to determine root causes thereof are disclosed. One aspect of the present disclosure is a method including receiving traffic data at an intersection; determining statistics associated with traffic at the intersection based on the traffic data; detecting an anomaly in the traffic based on the statistics; utilizing an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to determine a root cause of the anomaly; and communicating an anomaly rule based on the root cause to a light controller to control traffic at the intersection.
