A Novel Urban Traffic Control Approach Considering Travelers' Intentions

Urban traffic control technology has experienced signal based traffic control traffic flow based on traffic control stage. However, due to information technology constraints, existing traffic control technology in addressing urban congestion and emissions has not achieved the desired results. Considering the future of intelligent transportation technology, this paper proposed a novel traffic approach which considers a traveler's trip intention. The traffic control system collects travelers' intentions and preferences through Cooperative Vehicle Infrastructure technology. Dynamic traffic signal control and guidance information are optimized according to a regional traffic coordination control algorithm. This paper discusses the importance, necessity and feasibility of implementing urban Traffic Control considering a travelers' trip intention. The system framework and key technology of the issue are also discussed.
