Adapting Signal Timings to Automated Incident Alarms within a Self-organised Traffic Control System

Abstract

Intersection management, routing, and congestion avoidance are key factors for improved mobility and better road network utilisation. Organic Traffic Control (OTC) is a self-organising traffic management system for urban road networks. Its main features are the self-adaptive traffic-responsive signalisation of intersections, the coordination of traffic light controllers, and dynamic route guidance of traffic streams. This paper aims at presenting how the automatic and fully distributed incident detection within OTC works and how OTC makes use of these incident alarms for the automated adaptation of signalisation.
