An invention regarding traffic flow management “Fast Lane On Warning” (FLOW) is disclosed whereby individual vehicles are informed and told what speed to go in order to pass through a traffic signal while the light is green. A FLOW (“fast lane on warning”) director sequencer works in conjunction with a traffic signal sequencer (commonly known in the art), both of which have the same service cycle period Pi. The (RGY) type phases and FLOW readout phases are set for each unique particular intersection. While the traffic sequencer controls repeating RGY cycles, the flow director sequencer instructs, generates, transmits repeating cycles of changeable readouts on one or more roadside unit (RSU) emplacements positioned up the road from the traffic signal for one or more lanes in one or more directions. These changing speed assignments or readouts, individually perceived by motorists, guide in motorists such that by the time they pass through the intersection, they will do so while the traffic signal is green, regardless of any random pattern of traffic individual motorists may have been in as they approached the emplacements.
