MODERN METHODS OF ROAD TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT IN CITIES

Abstract

Optimum synchronization of traffic signals is an effective and efficient way to reduce traffic jam. The introduction of an automatic traffic light system creates a number of advantages compared to individual regulation at every crossroad. The Green Way System was developed to ensure continuous and safe movement of vehicles on motorways. In this paper, we present a comprehensive overview of the studies on various methods for calculating and optimizing “Green Waves”. The main goal of these methods is to reduce the number of stops and minimize travel time. The analyzed works were divided into several groups: the classical model, the use of cyclically expanded networks, modeling based on the MATLAB program, multi-agent systems.
