Feedback Ramp Metering in Intelligent Transportation Systems is the first book on the topic of using feedback control (also called real-time traffic control or adaptive control by some traffic engineers) in ramp metering. It provides traffic theory fundamentals and then the design of feedback controllers for isolated and coordinated ramp metering problems. Software simulation code in Matlab and Paramics is provided in the book so that the reader can get a hands-on feel for the various algorithms. With a large number of examples, illustrations, and original problems, this book is excellent as a textbook or reference book for a senior or graduate level course on the subject, as well as a reference for researchers in related fields.

Ramp metering is an effective, viable, and practical strategy used to manage freeway traffic. It is a proven freeway management technique as various forms of ramp control have been in place since the 1960s in the Chicago, Detroit, and Los Angeles areas. Due in part to the success of these early applications, ramp metering has received increased emphasis in recent years under the umbrella of advanced traffic management systems (ATMS), a component of intelligent transportation systems (ITS). ITS America reports that there are currently more than 40 ATMS deployed, under construction, or in the planning stage in the U.S. by state transportation agencies. The future of ramp metering is also in this ITS context. Integration and interface with local street system control and other advanced ITS traffic control systems such as advanced vehicle control systems, dynamic route guidance, and advanced traveler information systems are the latest in ramp metering applications. Ramp meters are in place and working effectively on segments of I-395 and I-66 in Northern Virginia. The Virginia Department of Transportation is very much interested in the feasibility of implementing ramp metering on other segments of freeways throughout the state. Accordingly, the purpose of this study was to review and synthesize the existing literature on ramp metering. Specific topics included in the review were: impacts of ramp metering, including its advantages/benefits and disadvantages/disbenefits, warrants, criteria, and guidelines for ramp metering, metering rates. Detailed information on these topics is included in the report as well as general conclusions regarding ramp metering.

The primary objective of this project was to compare ramp metering algorithms and develop guidelines for improving ramp metering operations in Texas. As part of this research project, researchers collected data at several sites in Houston, Texas. Data analysis showed that many congested freeways are facing heavy ramp demand, and require significant changes in existing ramp metering operations if ramp metering continues to be used as part of freeway traffic management. Furthermore, researchers used computer simulation to compare the effectiveness of ALINEA with queue flush with the existing strategy of metering at the maximum rate with queue flushing. Researchers found that ALINEA does not provide any benefits when queue flushing is permitted. Under heavy demand conditions such as those in Houston, the current strategy to meter at the fastest rate remains the most beneficial. However, this strategy also provides limited benefits. Finally, researchers developed guidelines and recommendations for current and future ramp metering operations in Texas. This report documents the research results.
