A system of models for signal setting design of a signalized road network in evacuation conditions

Abstract

Signal control is considered an effective strategy to increase network capacity and to mitigate congestion. This paper will propose a system of models and procedures for the signal setting design of signalized intersections in a road transport network with endogenous estimation of origin-destination path flows. The system of models and procedures is able to support signal setting design for a road transport network both in ordinary and evacuation conditions.
