    Abstract
  • Traffic volume at recurrent congestion points is excessive, and the distribution of traffic load at associated intersections is unbalanced during peak hours. A coordinated control method of traffic signal for recurrent congestion points is proposed to solve the above problems. By tracking the traffic flow at the recurrent congestion point, the coordinated signal control area is determined according to a correlation of traffic volume. Then, the critical route of the coordinated signal control area is identified according to the traffic flow sharing rate and the average saturation of road sections. Based on the macroscopic fundamental diagram, an active perimeter control model considering the influences of critical routes on the state of road network is constructed. Meanwhile, a cell transmission model is used to describe the operating state of intersections and road sections. Maximum critical route capacity and equilibrium saturation of approaches are taken as the optimization objectives of signal control. A optimization model of signal control for balancing traffic load of road network is constructed. A simulation is carried out around the intersection of Wuhan Fazhan Avenue and Qingnian Road with its associated intersections. The results indicate that the average vehicle delay of boundary intersections increases by 6.8 s, but the average vehicle delay of the recurrent congestion point decreases by 15.7 s. The average vehicle delay decreases by 72.6 s, and queue length of the critical route decreases 26.1 m. Besides, the average vehicle delay of the road network is decreased by 14.7%, and the output traffic volume of the road network is increased by 26.6%.The simulation results verified the effectiveness of the proposed signal control method in alleviating traffic congestion at recurrent congestion points.
