Traffic congestion understood as transportation crowding is an important factor for increasing inconvenience of life and passing through element of transportation infrastructure in urban areas. Measures aimed at mitigating the negative effects of such situations should be taken at different levels of traffic management: strategic, tactical and operational. This requires a close cooperation and coordination between planners, designers and traffic engineers. The article presents strategies for managing congestion in cities using packages of ITS services. It also presents the concept of an integrated approach to this issue in the context of the theory of traffic flow.
