Multi-lane Traffic Flow Model: Speed Versus Density Difference as Lane Change Incentive and Effect of Lateral Flow Transfer on Traffic Flow Variables

For better and more efficient motorway traffic control strategies on a lane level, accurate modelling and prediction of traffic conditions is essential. Existing real-time traffic state estimation methods aggregate traffic across lanes. Hence, there is a need for lane-specific traffic flow models. The majority of the existing macroscopic lane...
