| Περίληψη | Purpose: TUC (Traffic-responsive Urban Control), a strategy aiming at providing coordinated traffic-responsive signal control in large-scale urban networks, has demonstrated high efficiency, especially under saturated conditions. Nevertheless, as TUC adopts common cycle times for all junctions at any time, some green time waste may occur at links with low or strongly varying alternative demand, which could be mitigated by enabling local actuation. It is the aim of this paper to investigate potential benefits to TUC performance emerging from such local actuation. Methods: Actuation may be performed in various ways: by relocating unused green time to stages serving high demand; or by preserving TUC-ordered offsets; or by combining as much as possible both of these features. To study and compare the performance and efficiency of these alternative ways to actuation under realistic traffic conditions, the AIMSUN microscopic simulation model of the road network of the city center of Chania, Greece, was used. Results: Simulation investigations indicated relocating unused green time to stages serving high demand as the most promising way towards a TUC-coordinated locally-actuated control scheme. However, improvements over the TUC strategy by adopting this approach to actuation were moderate. Conclusion: As the simulation results may be due to the signal control setup at the particular network under study and/or the examined demand scenarios, further investigations, including tests with other road networks and/or demand patterns are necessary before reaching any final conclusions concerning the best way to locally actuate the TUC-decided signal control plans. | en |
