Study of Dynamic Adjustment to the Freeway Entrance Ramp Based on VISSIM

Abstract:

This paper aimed at the freeway entrance ramp control principles, through introduction of dynamic adjustment system of the entrance ramp and the control algorithm of the difference between traffic demand and capacity, a problem of the dynamic adjustable rate’s selection was proposed, then used the micro-simulation tool VISSIM to analysis the influence of dynamic adjustable rate that under different capacity reduction factors, choosing delay time and travel time as the standard of entrance ramp control system. At last, this paper concludes that the best reduction factor is 0.98 times the capacity.
