Real-time traffic control by use of green-red traffic signals at the motorway mainstream is proposed in order to achieve safer merging of vehicles entering the work zone and, at the same time, maximize throughput and reduce travel delays. A particular issue addressed in this research is the investigation of the ...

This is mainly due to the complexity and the strong nonlinearities involved in the modeling of traffic flow processes.
