Abstract
Traffic signal control methods are suggested to improve the operational effectiveness of COSMOS system in Seoul. First. a method that improves progression of the corridor traffic flow within a common sub-area was explored. Applying this method, both frequency and magnitude of offset transition were reduced as compared to the existing method. In addition, the level of connection among neighboring corridors increased by applying the method, thus the qualify of progression was also improved. Second, a practical guideline on signal phase design was proposed to improve the efficiency of actuated operations for the left-turn movement. Last, a method for estimating optimal queue length parameters was surveyed and evaluated. An evaluation study was performed for the suggested methods through both field and simulation studies. Results showed that the proposed methods gave better performance than the existing methods. It is expected that the use of proposed methods can improve operational performance of COSMOS.
