Traffic Lights Project Task Tracker

Monitor project tasks with visual delay indicators and automatic status updates.

This template tracks project tasks using a hierarchical work breakdown structure (WBS) with due dates and automatic delay calculations. Each task shows the current delay status relative to today's date, helping teams quickly identify overdue work and prioritize accordingly.

Ideal for project managers and team leads managing multiple interconnected tasks. The traffic light system (via conditional formatting) provides instant visual feedback on task status, eliminating the need to manually review individual dates and reducing administrative overhead.
