Abstract :
The paper presents urban traffic control method suitable and tested for a small urban areas enabling more fluent traffic and thus increasing the throughput of the controlled area. The model is implemented in the adaptive Traffic Dependent Control module for higher control of the area designed for the optimization of the intersection signal plans, providing the best improvements for intersections with irregular traffic.
