Abstract:

With the goal of improving traffic flow and safety on urban freeways, the Texas Department of Transportation initiated a program of installing ramp metering on most freeways in Houston. This research provides advanced methods and strategies for implementing ramp metering, called flow signals in Houston, which will enhance motorist compliance with traffic control and reduce police enforcement requirements.
