AbstractThis paper presents a lane-based optimization method for the integrated design of lane markings and signal settings for isolated junctions. Both traffic and pedestrian movements are considered in a unified framework. Capacity maximization and cycle length minimization problems are considered. The problems are formulated as Binary-Mix-Integer-Linear-Programs (BMILP), which are solvable by any standard branch-and-bound routine. The integer variables include the permitted movements on traffic lanes and successor functions to govern the order of signal displays, whereas the continuous variables include the assigned lane flows, common flow multiplier, cycle length, and starts and durations of green for traffic movements and lanes and pedestrian crossings. A set of constraints are set up to ensure feasibility and safety of the resulting optimal lane markings and signal settings. Numerical examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
