Abstract
Simple traffic management strategies such as static signs, fixed pattern timed traffic lights, etc. fail to address the dynamic nature of traffic flow resulting in traffic backups and inefficiency. Accordingly, there are provided means for dynamically adjusting traffic signs, traffic signals etc. to adjust the flow to remove backups, avoid tailbacks and increase efficiency of travel etc. Further, most control systems are controlled with default control settings or ones based upon limited information. Accordingly, there are provided methods based upon real-time or offline micro-simulations from enhanced information and acquired data accumulated at high frequency, such as from connected vehicles, to allow for improved evolving model(s) of traffic flow within the traffic system to be established for establishing control settings etc. of traffic infrastructure such as traffic signs, traffic signals etc.
