The Influencing Factors to Arterial Coordinate Control System

Arterial coordinate control plays a major role in urban traffic, the actual influencing factors determine the design and application of coordinated control. This paper studies the various factors that affect the design of the signal timing for arterial coordinated control system. The paper summarizes and theoretically analyzes these influencing factors , and uses the existing rules of the traffic delay to analyze the delay, then constructs the simulation platform by TransModeler software to perform a lot of experiment in various scenarios to study the main factors. Finally the study of analysis and compare demonstrates the simulation result is more valuable than theories in the practical application of arterial coordinate control, and draws the conclusions which could help to design the signal timing arterial coordinated control system and estimate the quality of urban arterial road.
