Sažetak
Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) offer a solution for alleviating congestion in urban areas based on its traffic control service. It is part of the build + ITS approach where new infrastructure with different ITS services is applied to improve traffic throughput, reduce vehicle emissions, increase the Level of Service (LoS), and improve the usage of existing vehicles with the Mobility as a Service (MaaS) concept. The latter enables the cities to offer mobility users concepts of car-sharing, ride-sharing, and tailored multi-modal travel patterns. The city or urban road infrastructure can be divided into urban motorways and networks of signalized intersections. Traffic control approaches related to Variable Speed Limit (VSL) control, ramp metering, lane change recommendation, and Adaptive Traffic Signal Control (ATSC) are applied to manage the urban road infrastructure.
