Evaluation of Freeway Traffic Management and Control Measures Based on SUMO

Abstract With the rapid increase of freeway traffic volume, traffic congestion has become a normal phenomenon, through scientific freeway management and control measures, the traffic efficiency of the whole road can be effectively improved and the congestion problem can be alleviated. Therefore, this paper takes Shaoxing section of Shanghai-Hangzhou-Ningbo Feeway as the research object, puts forward three active traffic control measures, and uses the traffic simulation software SUMO to simulate and evaluate the effect of the freeway control measures. The results show that emergency lane control measure, ramp metering control measure, and variable speed limit control measure can effectively reduce the delay of freeway in the congested section, and improve road capacity. In this paper, the study of freeway management and control measures under congestion conditions, provides relevant decision support and theoretical guidance for freeway management.
