TLDR
This study summarizes the current road traffic congestion measures and provides a constructive insight into the development of a sustainable and resilient traffic management system.Abstract:
Traffic congestion is a perpetual problem for the sustainability of transportation development. Traffic congestion causes delays, inconvenience, and economic losses to drivers, as well as air pollution. Identification and quantification of traffic congestion are crucial for decision-makers to initiate mitigation strategies to improve the overall transportation system’s sustainability. In this paper, the currently available measures are detailed and compared by implementing them on a daily and weekly traffic historical dataset. The results showed each measure showed significant variations in congestion states while indicating a similar congestion trend. The advantages and disadvantages of each measure are identified from the data analysis. This study summarizes the current road traffic congestion measures and provides a constructive insight into the development of a sustainable and resilient traffic management system.read more

Study on Identification and Prevention of Traffic Congestion Zones Considering Resilience-Vulnerability of Urban Transportation Systems
TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors introduced the Self-Organizing Feature Mapping (SOFM) model, constructed the urban traffic congestion zoning index system based on the resilience and vulnerability of urban traffic systems, and established the urban Traffic congestion zoning model, which is divided into four, five, six, and seven according to the different structures of competition layer topology.

Lane-changing in traffic streams
Jorge A. Laval,Carlos F. Daganzo +1 more
TL;DR: It is postulated that lane-changing vehicles create voids in traffic streams, and that these voids reduce flow, and this mechanism is described with a model that tracks lane changers precisely, as particles endowed with realistic mechanical properties.

Some traffic features at freeway bottlenecks
TL;DR: In this paper, the average discharge rate of vehicles in a queue can be 10% lower than the flow measured prior to the queue's formation and the discharge flows exhibited nearly stationary patterns that alternated between higher and lower rates.
