Samenvatting
The SCOOT traffic- adaptive control system has been modified to allow the traffic engineer to implement particular traffic management procedures. The SCOOT adaptive traffic control system is now operational in many towns and cities in the United Kingdom and abroad. The signal settings it procures are designed to minimise the total delays and stops in the network under control. SCOOT has been successful; and surveys show that SCOOT obtains significant benefits over the best up to date fixed time plans. However, on occasions there may be good reasons for wishing to modify the usual actions of the signal optimisers in SCOOT.
