A Dynamic Intersection Traffic Control System Simulation Model

Abstract Traffic control at road intersections is an old and ever growing problem in cities all over the world. In many cities, intersections represent bottlenecks in the traffic flow. Evaluating and managing intersections are complex, difficult, costly, and time consuming. The existing methods for traffic management, surveillance and control, are not adequately efficient in terms of performance, cost, maintenance, and support. In this paper, a framework of an approach for the Dynamic Intersection Traffic Control (DITC) system simulation is proposed, and an intersection design that would benefit from the proposed DITCis also presented. The proposed strategy reduces conflicts through geometric design and aspecific traffic control system. The proposed DITC system has no waiting time, no stages to follow, and has a specific configuration.
