22nd ITS World Congress, Bordeaux, France, 5– 9 October 2015 Paper number ITS-2375 Coordinated ramp metering with destination specific priorities for partial inflows Amir Meshkat 1*, Jos L.M Vrancken2 1. TU Delft, The Netherlands (a.meshkat@tudelft.nl) 2. TU Delft, The Netherlands Abstract Typical control measures in road networks are ramp metering, link control, driver information and route guidance systems. Ramp metering systems on motorways in urban areas need a level of coordination, however traditional algorithms take the existing ramp metering systems as starting point, which has inherent limitations, as these systems were not designed to operate in a setting with coordination. In this paper a more fundamental approach is taken, by considering both internal performance and the role the network should play in its surrounding network. This approach has been expressed in a generic, scalable model for network management, the Quantitative Hierarchical Model (QHM). When this model is applied to ramp metering, it becomes easy to assign priorities to the different on-ramps and to the motorway. This way of coordinating on-ramps offers far greater flexibility to support various traffic management policies. KEYWORDS: Coordinated Ramp Metering, Destination Specific Priorities, Quantitative Hierarchical Model (QHM). Introduction Typical control measures employed in motorway networks are ramp metering, link control, driver information and route guidance systems [1]. Ramp metering is considered as the most effective approach to the control of motorway networks [2]. It was developed in the 1960’s [3] and aims at improv
