| Summary: | advanced actuated traffic control at signalized changing the diamond interchange ring structure within collected data was analyzed to compare the different concluded that flexible strategies could lead to conjunction with a computer simulation package to controller strategy and phase pattern performs best diamond interchanges. The study attempts to determine lag-lag phasing sequence outperforms many of the other model traffic flow and the interactions with the of this analysis, it was concluded that no one outperformed the 2-controller strategy because of the over 21 of the scenarios tested. The basic S3-phase performance of the signal strategies is conducted provides. Specifically, the one controller strategy reduced delay for special circumstances. reduction of cycle length during periods of low requires that a traffic signal controller is used in strategies because of the flexibility this strategy strategies for signal control. Based upon the results the benefits a "flexible'' phasing strategy provides the traffic signal controller. Modeling the This thesis documents an operational analysis of ographics. to the interchange. Flexible phasing is implemented by traffic intensity at the interchange. It was also traffic signal. For this research, the microscopic traffic simulation model TexSIM was used. The using hardware-in-the-loop simulation. This procedure |
