Abstract Traffic prediction in urban areas is essential for smart city applications, enabling efficient transportation management, reduced congestion, and improved quality of life. Spatiotemporal traffic prediction is particularly challenging due to complex spatial and temporal dependencies in traffic data. This study introduces a Convolutional-Temporal Neural Net- work System (CTNS) model that combines Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) to capture spatial and temporal features simultaneously for more accurate traffic forecasting. CNNs are employed to learn spatial correlations between different locations in the urban area, while RNNs, specifically Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks, capture the sequential dependencies in temporal traffic patterns. Using real-world traffic data, the hybrid CTNS model demonstrates superior performance in accurately predicting traffic flow compared to traditional models. This approach highlights the potential of deep learning architectures for enhancing the accuracy of traffic predictions, which is critical for urban planning and intelligent transportation systems. Extensive experiments on real-world urban traffic datasets validate the model’s ability to achieve high accuracy, scalability, and robustness in handling complex spatio-temporal interactions. © 2025 IEEE.
