Abstract

The phenomenon of sharply increasing road congestion adversely affects both quality of life and economic aspects arising from transport. Junctions, meeting points of several motor vehicle flows, favour the apparition of road congestion phenomenon. Intelligent real-time control is necessary for ensuring a fluent traffic. This paper presents a modality to improve the performances of real-time traffic control method based on interval between vehicles by means of a convenient positioning of sensors and signalling devices.
