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.

Freeway ramp metering systems have been used to improve urban freeway flow. However, control strategies must be properly adjusted to account for ramp queues overflowing onto surface streets and provide equitable on-ramp control during various operating periods. An improved solution can be obtained by optimizing this problem simultaneously for a group of time slices. This study identifies and examines a microcomputer-based optimization scheme that can assist in developing efficient freeway control strategies for on-line freeway surveillance and control. A multi-level freeway control structure is employed for which ramp metering control algorithms are developed for each level of control. Flow-based and lane occupancy-based system algorithms are presented. Detailed data file requirements are provided for each control level. A microcomputer prototype, or laboratory test version of the system level, will be described in a companion project report.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Transport Systems Telematics, TST 2011, held in Katowice-Ustron, Poland, in October 2011. The 47 papers included in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in this book. Transport telematics systems are information technologies that are used in the field of transport, including infrastructure, vehicles and users. Intelligent transport systems are advanced applications that are to provide innovative services for the various modes of transport and traffic management. Also they should enable users to be better informed and make safer, more coordinated and smarter use of transport networks. Telematic services integrate telecommunications, electronics and information technology in transport engineering in order to plan, design, operate, maintain and manage transport systems.

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.

This book presents research advances in intelligent transportation and smart cities in detail, mainly focusing on green traffic and urban utility tunnels, presented at the 4th International Symposium for Intelligent Transportation and Smart City (ITASC) held at Tongji University, Shanghai, on May 8–10, 2019. It discusses a number of hot topics, such as the 2BMW system (Bus, Bike, Metro and Walking), transportation safety and environmental protection, urban utility design and application, as well as the application of BIM (Building Information Modeling) in city design. By connecting the theory and applications of intelligent transportation in smart cities, it enhances traffic efficiency and quality. The book gathers numerous selected papers and lectures, including contributions from respected scholars and the latest engineering advances, to provide guidance to researchers in the field of transportation and urban planning at universities and in related industries. The first conference in the ITASC series was held in 2013 as a workshop of the International Symposium on Autonomous Decentralized System (ISADS) in Mexico City. The second and third were held in May 2015 and May 2017, respectively, in Tongji University, Shanghai.
