Freeway traffic control is a broad research area, not only interesting for its applicative
perspective, but also highly motivating for theoretical investigations. This research topic has …

Variable Speed Limit (VSL) control has been one of the most popular techniques with the
potential of smoothing traffic flow, maximizing throughput at bottlenecks, and improving …

The goals of this paper are to analyze the effects of Variable Speed Limits (VSLs) on
freeway traffic flow, to propose a new macroscopic model for VSL, and to compare, calibrate …

This paper proposes a Logic-Based Traffic Flow Control algorithm (LB-TFC) for integrated
control of Ramp Metering (RM) installations and Variable Speed Limits (VSLs) in order to …

Freeway work zone with lane closure can lead to disruption to local traffic and cause
significant impacts on mobility, safety and environmental sustainability. To mitigate traffic …

This article provides an overview of the classical and new techniques in traffic flow control
and estimations. The overview begins with a description of the most used traffic flow models …

The Model Predictive Control (MPC) framework has shown great potential for the control of
Variable Speed Limits (VSLs) and Ramp Metering (RM) installations. However, the …

Variable speed limit (VSL) is an intelligent transportation system (ITS) solution for traffic
management. The speed limits can be changed dynamically to adapt to traffic conditions …

In recent years, variable speed limit (VSL) has been used to decrease the total travel time
and alleviate the traffic congestion on freeway. To improve traffic efficiency, we proposed a …

Abstract Variable Speed Limits (VSL) stand out as a well-established and effective strategy
to alleviate traffic congestion and enhance traffic safety on motorways. It allows Variable …
