Ramp Metering and Freeway Bottleneck Capacity

This study aims to determine whether ramp meters increase the capacity of active freeway bottlenecks. The traffic flow characteristics at twenty-seven active bottlenecks in the Twin Cities have been studied for seven weeks without ramp metering and seven weeks with ramp metering. A methodology for systematically identifying active freeway bottlenecks in a metropolitan area is proposed, which re...

Anticipative model predictive control for ramp metering in freeway networks

When implementing ramp metering in the context of freeway networks, traffic can spontaneously re-route due to the applied control actions. Although this re-routing can have an important impact on the resulting traffic situation in the traffic network and on the performance of the traffic network as a whole, re-routing is not automatically included in current model predictive frameworks for free...

Model Predictive Control of a Freeway Network with Capacity Drops

In this paper, we present a model predictive controller to reduce road traffic congestion in freeway networks. The model predictive controller regulates traffic in the freeway through the use of ramp metering and variable speed limits. The controller uses a Link-Node Cell transmission model (LN-CTM) to represent freeway dynamics. We modify the standard LN-CTM to account for the capacity drop ph...
