▼ Dynamic traffic management (DTM) plays an important role from Dutch policy perspective to prevent road congestion and has been developed from control strategies to services. Five traffic control centers, 22 different DTM systems with 35 functions and over 50,000 DTM components make up the national traffic management network in the Netherlands. The malfunctioning of the DTM systems is expected to create negative impacts to the traffic, proper maintenance planning is necessary to ensure their availabilities. However, there is less knowledge about the DTM malfunctions, which makes it difficult to monetize the malfunction effects and therefore to optimally deploy the maintenance budget. In this research, a macroscopic dynamic traffic assignment model “MARPLE” is used to evaluate the social costs of the DTM malfunctions according to the failure function, failure duration, and failure location. The motorway network around Amsterdam is chosen as the study area in this research, and four DTM systems and measures were evaluated, including the rush hour lane (RHL), the motorway traffic management (MTM) system, the dynamic route information panels (DRIPs) and the ramp metering (RM) system. By conversing the DTM malfunctions into the motorway network, the introduced impacts to the traffic both in local and network levels are identified. This research made the first attempt to modify DTM malfunctions in a macroscopic dynamic traffic assignment model, and a methodology was developed to calculate the malfunction costs both in traffic flow and safety aspects. The outcome of this research answered what-if questions with regarding to DTM malfunctions, it also proved the feasibility of the ambition to translate the DTM malfunction impacts at a network level into its social costs, according to which the maintenance strategy for the DTM systems can be better deployed. Overall, the initial goal of calculating the malfunction costs of the DTM systems with a newly developed methodology is met. Through the identified limitations and improvement strategies, the framework developed in this study could offer the possibility to refine the analysis, and/or easily be applied to other DTM systems and road parts.

▼ The future brings Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAVs), where platooning with small inter-vehicle time gaps is possible. However, before the situation that the entire car park exists of CAVs, there is a transition period. This MSc. thesis has developed two strategies (in MOTUS), to let CAVs actively form platoons with dynamic dedicated lane sections (DDLSs). This means that the lane sections temporarily become dedicated to CAVs only under certain traffic density conditions.

▼ In the European Union Road freight transport volume is expected to grow 78% between 2000 and 2030, which results in more trucks on the road network. The worldwide estimated trend shows an increase of 150 million freight vehicles and an increase of 240 million passenger vehicles. The growth of both vehicle classes will have a major impact on the road network and the roads will become congested. Especially in dense urban environments with many intersections. Further, trucks have a detrimental impact on traffic flows, especially at intersections, because of their slow dynamics and large size. In addition, a stopping truck results in higher emissions and fuel consumption compared to a car. However, today’s traffic controllers are not capable of optimizing traffic flow at intersections based on classification of different vehicles. Therefore, it would be beneficial to all vehicles involved if the number of stops for trucks would be reduced to a minimum, by servicing each vehicle class in a different way. Throughout this research the focus is to develop a signalized intersection controller which is able to reduce the number of stops for trucks, while maintaining an equal level of service for the other modes of transport. Extensive literature studies provided important insights into the development of signalized intersection controllers. A selection of the techniques found in the literature is used to develop a new truck signal priority controller design. The basic idea is to use a weighted traffic light schedule in combination with priority weights to enable truck signal priority. The design is evaluated in a case study and simulated for multiple configurations. This leads to an overview of the performance in terms of the number of stops and vehicle delay. From the results several conclusions can be drawn on the optimal weight configuration, which is compared to a state-of-the-art model predictive intersection controller. The results showed an reduction of the total number of stops by 751 and total vehicle delay by 304 minutes for trucks over a week (26,6% and 20,4% respectively). While, the total number of stops and total vehicle delay for cars increased, by 155 stops and 201 minutes (0,1% and 0,3% respectively). However, the overall total number of stops and total vehicle delay were reduced by 596 stops and 103 minutes (0,42% and 0,16% respectively). It can be concluded that the proposed truck signal priority controller design can reduce the number of stops for trucks at a signalized intersection, while maintaining the overall traffic flow at least as good as a state-of-the-art model predictive intersection controller.

▼ In order to reduce congestion numbers on the highways, ramp metering can be used. The currently existing ramp metering control strategies are of a macroscopic nature. This means that the average occupancy on the main lane or average flow values on the main lane determine the temporarily fixed cycle times for the traffic light located near the on-ramp to control the inflow from the on-ramp. In this thesis, it is investigated to what extent a microscopic approach to ramp metering would lead to less travel time delays. This approach shows a green light for the on-ramp vehicles when a gap in the main lane flow on the right lane has been detected instead of using the temporarily fixed cycle times. Computations on the location of the gap measurement loop detectors is required. Therefore, an acceleration distribution has been composed by means of an experiment as well. Concludingly, it was found that the proposed microscopic algorithm leads to additional travel time savings in the base case scenario compared to the currently used Rijkswaterstaat algorithm. Furthermore, adjustments to the developed microscopic control structure, such as a combined Rijkswaterstaat and microscopic algorithm, are proposed and it is recommended for further research to implement these adjustment and investigate their effect on the travel time delays.

▼ In this thesis an investigation is performed into the effect of different speed limits on freeway capacity. From literature, much is known about the variety of factors that affect capacity, but the exact effect of the speed limit on capacity is not yet clear. In recent years, several speed limits changes have taken place at multiple two-lane freeway bottlenecks throughout The Netherlands, which makes it possible to compare effects of different speed limits at the same location. To evaluate the effect of the speed limit on capacity, the Product Limit Method has been applied to identify breakdown flows and generate capacity distributions, which could subsequently be compared for different limits. In the comparison of capacity distributions under different speed limits, it was found that significant changes in capacity had occurred, but that no uniform direction of the effect could be found. Subsequently, to control for location specific factors and other variables, Fixed Effects regression has been used to determine the effect of the speed limit on the breakdown flow. It was found that the breakdown flow under the 120 km/h limit was significantly higher than under the 130 km/h limit (in the range of 60 to 190 vehicles per hour) and that the breakdown flow under the 100 km/h limit was, in some cases, also higher than under the 130 km/h limit. In addition to this, it was found that a significant positive relation exists between the height of the speed limit and the fraction of flow in the passing lane. Moreover, it was shown that the relation between the fraction of flow in the passing lane and the level of breakdown flow was best represented by a quadratic relation, which could indicate that an “optimal” distribution of flows may exist. Given the results of this thesis, it is posed that a change in the speed limit is likely to affect capacity primarily through altering the lane flow distribution and that it will depend on the layout of a freeway location what the optimal lane flow distribution is and which speed limit leads to this optimal lane flow distribution.

▼ The past decade has seen a rise in ability to collect, store and manage large amounts of data. With data becoming increasingly available to businesses, organizations are looking to new ways to gain insight into their activities. Acquired information can help transportation companies to cope with industry trends of expanded competition, the increasing pressure for lower transportation costs and higher service levels. The challenge for truckload carrier companies lies in determining which data is of value to the business. Understanding performance indicators and how to measure these is an important aspect of using data. To propose a solution, a framework is developed, in which clear performance indicators are reported, as well as how these can be measured.

▼ Automated vehicles are conventional vehicles equipped with advanced sensors, controller and actuators. They achieve intelligent information exchange with the environment through the onboard sensing and cooperative system. vehicles are possible to have situation awareness and automatically analyze the safety and dangerous state of journeys. Finally vehicles can reach destinations following drivers' willing. The ongoing research on intelligent vehicles is mainly about improving the safety, comfort, efficiency and provide an excellent human-car interface. As a self-organizing system, the traffic system is quite complicated. There are many disturbance factors to lead to various traffic problems. One of the daily occurring problems is congestion on the motorway. In order to reduce congestion, Rijkswaterstaat applies various dynamic traffic management (DTM) measures to guide the traffic. It works well nowadays in conventional traffic. However, automated vehicles entered the market recently and will start to play an essential role in future traffic. The automated vehicles' reaction to DTM measures may be different from conventional vehicles while the traffic problems still exist. Therefore, it is necessary to research the effectiveness of current Dutch traffic management in automated vehicles. This thesis aims to investigate the effectiveness of current Dutch DTM measures with driver assistant and partially automated vehicles. Due to the time limitation, only the ramp metering measure will be researched through a simulation study. Therefore the main research question is 'How partial automated driving influences the performance of current Dutch dynamic traffic management system and how can this be evaluated via simulation?'. Three methods are applied, including literature review, simulation and statistical analysis. The literature part reviews levels of automation, various longitudinal and lateral vehicle motion models, which are chosen and modified in the simulation. Many ramp metering algorithms are also introduced in the literature review. The ramp metering controller in the simulation follows RWS algorithm. Besides, the motorway demand and the penetration rate of level 1 and 2 vehicles are two input of the simulation. From the simulation results, it is concluded that the level 2 automation consisting of Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and Lane Change Assistance (LCA) system brings a negative impact on the motorway capacity. The ramp metering measure remains efficient if the penetration rate of level 2 vehicles is low. However, when the capacity reduces to the critical flow set up in the ramp metering controller, Ramp metering loses its efficiency. The parameters in the ramp metering controller therefore, require an update. For further research, it is recommended to simulate the same scenarios with different ramp metering algorithms. Since the functions of the algorithms are different, there might be other robust control algorithms for automated vehicles. Besides, another limitation of this thesis is that the automation…
