A traffic tower is a permanent raised structure providing a clearer view of traffic conditions than can be had from street level and protection for the traffic controller from the hazards of moving vehicles. Some traffic towers are fitted with manually operated lights and/or signals. Other traffic towers rely on handsignals to direct traffic. In some cases, traffic towers offer a central control location for lights at more than one intersection. The last remaining traffic tower in the United Kingdom is in Bicester, Oxfordshire.

- 交通亭,又稱交通指揮亭,是指用作指運道路交通之崗亭。最簡單的交通亭是設計為容納一人站立之開放式更亭,可以站於其內,以手勢指揮交通。有些交通亭為封閉式,有人手操作的燈號。還有些交通亭是用作操作附近數個路口的燈號。 現時不少交通亭已被自動式交通燈取代,但一些較落後的地區依然廣泛使用以手勢指揮交通的交通亭,例如朝鮮民主主義人民共和國。 (zh)

In some cases, traffic towers offer a central control location for lights at more than one intersection. Many traffic towers have been replaced by automated traffic lights. Many remaining traffic towers are significant landmarks and have been retained or moved to other locations as historic structures.
