The article deals with the current issue of road traffic management in the urban area during an emergency, which can be triggered in the event of traffic congestion, extraordinary events, or other unexpected situations in the area. If this situation arises in the city, the aim is to propose meaningful traffic management solutions to decrease the impact of society-wide losses. The main requirements are then early identification and classification of the cause of the emergency, finding and quick application of a suitable alternative control solution and rapid ability to resume operations in the area of congestion restricted. The main idea of the research is the use of traffic lights in crisis management of transport. First the article carries out a review of current foreign solutions in the event of emergencies, then it summarizes the methodological proposal for the use of traffic lights in the Czech Republic in the event of emergencies. The proposal also contains a list of necessary legislative adjustments and changes in technical solutions of currently installed traffic lights. Finally, the methodical procedure is applied to a specific example of the urban area in Uherské Hradiště.
