摘要: Actuated traffic signal controls at isolated intersections largely benefit from gap-out and phase skip features as they allow unused green times to be re-allocated to those movements need them. A few studies indicated that lane-by-lane gap-out should be implemented for multi-lane approaches instead of traditional combined single channel gap-out. While the lane-bylane gap-out is logically better than the combined channel gap-out, no studies have shown the delay benefits under the optimized green splits and gap-out times. This research developed a lane-by-lane gap-out-based actuated signal control optimization method and evaluated its performance using four demand cases covering volume-to-capacity ratios between 0.4 and 1.3. A simulation-based study indicated that the lane-by-lane gap-out outperformed the combined single channel gap-out for all these cases. It was found that over 12% total delay savings were observed for high volume-to-capacity ratio cases.
