An emergency vehicle traffic signal preemption system considering queue spillbacks along routes and negative impacts on non‐priority traffic

open access: yesIET Intelligent Transport Systems
In urban areas, emergency vehicles (EVs) need efficient traffic signal preemption to ensure timely responses during peak hours. While emergency vehicle traffic signal preemption (EVTSP) has garnered significant attention in the literature, the issues of ...

A geometric design method for intersections with pre-signal systems using a phase swap sorting strategy. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Conventional geometric design methods for pre-signal systems usually use the expected traffic demand, which may obtain a short sorting area distance and lead to frequent queue spillbacks due to stochastic traffic arrivals.

Towards improving sustainability of rail transport by reducing traffic delays at level crossings: A case study for the State of Florida

open access: yesCleaner Logistics and Supply Chain, 2021
Rail transport makes a significant contribution to the economy of many geographical locations around the globe. Along with numerous merits, rail transport has some demerits as well, such as traffic delays and safety issues at level crossings.

Real-time decentralized traffic signal control for congested urban networks considering queue spillbacks

open access: yesTransportation Research Part C: Emerging Technologies, 2021
This paper proposes a decentralized network-level traffic signal control method addressing the effects of queue spillbacks. The method is traffic-responsive, does not require data communication between intersections’ controllers, uses lane-based queue measurements, and is acyclic.

Static traffic assignment with residual queues and spillback

open access: yesTransportation Research Part B: Methodological, 2019
Abstract In this paper we propose a novel static traffic assignment model where the network loading component accounts for non-stationary residual queues as well as spillback effects by explicitly adding capacity and storage constraints. This is achieved by deriving a static version of the dynamic general link transmission model that describes ...

Dynamic queuing transmission model for dynamic network loading

open access: yesTransport, 2017
This paper presents a new macroscopic multi-class dynamic network loading model called Dynamic Queuing Transmission Model (DQTM). The model utilizes ‘good’ properties of the Dynamic Queuing Model (DQM) and the Link Transmission Model (LTM) by offering a ...

A Perimeter Control Strategy for Oversaturated Network Preventing Queue Spillback

open access: yesProcedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences, 2012
AbstractA perimeter signal control strategy is investigated for a congested network. First, an algorithm is proposed to determine the proportion of traffic should be held outside during peak periods at each entry link, which is achieved by properly allocating green time for those movements.

Operational Analysis and Capacity Improvement Strategies for Signalized Intersections: Case Study on Miami, Florida

open access: yesFuture Transportation
Urban population growth and expanding economic activity have intensified the demand on transportation networks, resulting in higher traffic volumes, increased spillbacks, and a declining level of service (LOS).

Analyzing a Tandem Fluid Queueing Model with Stochastic Capacity and Spillback

open access: yes, 2019
The tandem fluid queueing model is a useful tool for performance analysis and control design for a variety of transportation systems. In this article, we study the joint impact of stochastic capacity and spillback on the long-time properties of this model. Our analysis focuses on the system of two fluid queueing links in series. The upstream link has a

Left-turn queue spillback identification based on single-section license plate recognition data

open access: yesTransportmetrica B: Transport Dynamics
Left-turn queue spillback occurs when the queue of left-turn or adjacent through traffic exceeds the channelized section's capacity, resulting in discharge flow breakdown and inefficient use of green time. License plate recognition (LPR) systems, which offer lane-based data on individual vehicle discharging, present an ideal data source for the ...
