Optimizing Traffic Signal Settings for Public Transport Priority Scheffler, Robert Strehler, Martin transit signal priority traffic flow traffic signal optimization cyclically time-expanded network public transport In order to promote public transport many municipalities use traffic signal control with a priority for buses or trams. In this paper, we address the problem of finding optimal passive transit signal priority settings. Building on a cyclically time-expanded network model for the combined traffic assignment traffic signal coordination problem, we introduce a suitable queuing model and several modifications to model public transport vehicles appropriately. We evaluate the applicability of this approach by computing and analyzing optimal solutions for several instances of a real-world scenario.
