The incorporation of Artificial Intelligence algorithms in Intelligent Transportation Systems gives rise to new opportunities for a more sustainable urban mobility. However, one of the main challenges is to decide when and where these techniques should be applied; several options appear, such as cloud computing, fog computing, edge computing, or even edge devices. In this paper, an Internet of Things‐based solution for smart traffic management is presented. Using the lightweight Random Early Detection for Vehicles Dynamic mechanism as a basis, we optimize using evolutionary algorithms. Random Early Detection for Vehicles Dynamic can be applied in signaled intersections to proactively detect incipient congestion and set the best cycle and phases of traffic lights. Then, the authors demonstrate that once Random Early Detection for Vehicles Dynamic has been appropriately optimised offline, it can be later used in unknown traffic scenarios without the burden of applying Artificial Intelligence in constrained Internet of Things devices. The performance of this mechanism is widely tested with the SUMO simulation tool. Results show that this improved version, called iREDVD, notably reduces the vehicles’ waiting time, average trip time, fuel consumption, and emission of particles and gaseous pollutants compared with other proposals.
