Research on Adaptability of Flow Control Strategies for Expressway On-Ramp Pre-Timed Control

In order to study the choice of flow control strategies of pre-timed control under different mainline and ramp volume, the research on adaptability of the three different flow control strategies (single-lane one vehicle per green, single-lane two vehicle per green, single-lane three vehicle per green) has been done using microscopic traffic simulation software-Vissim5.0. Through the comparison of expressway operation indexes under the three flow control strategies, the adaptability and the reference for the choice of pre-timed flow control strategies have been obtained.
