TRAFFIC CONTROL: THE LINK BETWEEN TRANSPORT POLICY AND TRAFFIC ENGINEERING

VERKEERSREGELTECHNIEK: SCHAKEL TUSSEN VERVOERSBELEID EN VERKEERSBEHEERSING

Traffic control will, in the future, comprise more than traffic signals on junctions alone; the big increase of motorised traffic, the more intensive use of car traffic inside built-up areas require a rigorous control of the traffic flow; priority requirements for public transport necessitate the application of the most advanced control equipment; recent developments in the area of micro-processors open up new possibilities. /TRRL/
