Abstract

In this paper, we use CA model to study the traffic flow on a ring road with one traffic light. A velocity guidance strategy is presented: when crossing traffic light, a message will give the driver a desired velocity in order that he can avoid sharply brakes when signal light turns red. The numerical results show that the velocity guidance strategy can efficiently reduce the ratio of the stopped vehicles and get relatively high and stable flow.
