Abstract

This study, based on principle of bus priority, uses complementary doctrines to create mixed traffic flow intersection signal-planning model under effective green time. By discussing the objective function of optimization model, we ensure and take advantage of nonlinear equivalence feature. After that, this study refers to Newton algorithm to solve this model. Considering the mixed characteristic of traffic flow, we put forward to adoption of traffic capacity, delay time and parking number together to evaluate operation effect. Through the example analysis, it was shown that this model and solution algorithm responded well and indications increased remarkably.
