Real-time scheduling and routing of shared autonomous vehicles considering platooning in intermittent segregated lanes and priority at intersections in urban corridors

Anticipating the forthcoming integration of shared autonomous vehicles (SAVs) into urban networks, the imperative of devising an efficient real-time scheduling and routing strategy for these vehicles becomes evident if one is to maximize their potential in enhancing travel efficiency. In this study, we address the problem of jointly...

A Partition-Enabled Multi-Mode Band Approach to Arterial Traffic Signal Optimization

Arterial traffic signal coordination makes traffic flow more efficient and safer. This paper presents a partition-enabled multi-mode band (PM-BAND) model that is designed to solve the signal coordination problem for arterials with multiple modes, i.e., passenger cars and transit vehicles. The proposed method permits the progression bands to...
