Traffic signals are one of the few 'active control' elements the Indiana Department of Transportation has available for regulating the flow of traffic. The study was initiated by the Indiana ITS Program Engineer to determine if naturally occurring platoon of traffic could be identified and a traffic controller manipulated to accommodate the progression of that platoon through a traffic signal. The document presents a review of the current state of the practice of traffic control algorithm development. It presents a new method for accommodating platoons at isolated rural intersections. This new strategy is evaluated using hardware-in-the-loop simulation. The document presents brief discussion on the expected benefits and costs associated with the deployment of this strategy and evaluates platoon dispersion using filed data, simulation, and analytical models. Suggestions for further work is also presented.
