Sažetak
Urban motorways serve the traffic demand from adjacent dense populated urban regions and transit traffic. Combinations of these two traffic demand types generate periodically traffic congestions during the peak hours. The capacity drop effect is the most common cause of congestions. It occurs when the current traffic flow reached its maximal capacity of the observed urban motorway section. In order to alleviate the capacity drop effect and enable better level of service on motorways new traffic control methods are introduced. One of the used traffic control methods is variable speed limit control (VSLC). VSLC conducts homogenization and reduction of vehicle speeds what consequently decreases time needed to create a critical shockwave, which will induce the capacity drop. This paper presents a short overview of the latest VSLC algorithms originally designed for mitigation of traffic congestions and their effects on the motorway mainline. Firstly, simple reactive VSLC algorithms are introduced. Then approaches based on model based optimization are described. Possible coordination between VSLC and other motorway management strategies is also described in this paper.
