Abstract

This paper presents a new design of intelligent event-responsive urban traffic management system. Our motivation for designing and developing such systems is to seek answers to the following emerging research questions: 1. How to enhance the capability of an individual signalized intersection to cater for dynamic changing traffic demand generated by well-informed travellers? 2. If the intelligence of intersection traffic signals is the key to the above question, then the next challenge would be how to perform effective central intervention in order to achieve traffic network efficiency and deal with incidents without compromising the local intelligence? 3. Further more, how to include transport policy dimensions into daily traffic management to achieve broader economical, environmental and social objectives rather than traffic specific ones?
