Abstract :
This paper mainly talks about the type of intersection signal control for transit priority. Firstly, it gives a brief introduction to the intersection signal control method and simulation method. Secondly, it puts forward the calculation method of basic parameters. Thirdly, based on the active priority control strategy and the intersection features, it designs three control algorithms, namely Induction Control, Induction Control for Transit and Semi Induction Control. Finally, it gives case studies to compare the effect of different control algorithms. The results show that we must take the comprehensive benefit of transit and social traffic into consideration.
