Abstract

Simulation experiments are reported in which the control policies developed in an earlier paper for stable régimes are compared with other suggested procedures when employed during oversaturated periods. It is shown that the policies remain effective with respect to mean delay per vehicle. The problem of reducing the maximum individual delay may be tackled by means of a trade-off of mean delay by imposing a maximum phase duration during extreme congestion.
