Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of urban traffic management technology, and in particular to a vehicle traffic management method for alleviating urban traffic congestion. Background Technology
[0002] With rapid socio-economic development and the accelerating pace of urbanization and motorization, the rapid growth of urban population and motor vehicle ownership has triggered a dramatic increase in urban transportation demand. However, the reality of insufficient urban road space and relatively backward traffic management technology has made the contradiction between traffic demand and supply increasingly prominent. Traffic congestion has become a major problem in urban transportation, and the resulting time waste, energy consumption, and environmental pollution have significantly affected the operational efficiency of urban economic construction and social development, becoming a key factor restricting sustainable urban development.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to address urban traffic congestion from both the perspectives of traffic supply and traffic demand.
[0004] Currently, cities both domestically and internationally generally alleviate urban traffic congestion by increasing transportation supply and suppressing transportation demand. However, in practice, the results have not been entirely satisfactory, specifically in the following ways:
[0005] In terms of transportation supply, the limited availability of urban road land resources and road construction funds severely restricts the speed of transportation infrastructure construction, falling far short of meeting the growth rate of transportation demand. Furthermore, newly constructed transportation infrastructure can only temporarily alleviate traffic congestion; as new traffic volumes are induced, congestion will recur after a period of time, and the external losses caused by traffic congestion remain uncompensated.
[0006] In terms of traffic demand, many cities in my country have adopted the method of restricting traffic based on license plate numbers to curb traffic demand.
[0007] While it can effectively alleviate some traffic congestion and reduce air pollution in the short term, it cannot meet the needs of sustainable urban transportation development or satisfy the people's growing travel demands.
[0008] Simply relying on extensive methods such as increasing transportation infrastructure cannot fundamentally solve the problem of traffic congestion, nor can supply-side policies that purely suppress traffic demand effectively alleviate the problem of traffic congestion.
[0009] Therefore, how to optimize the total number of urban vehicle trips and travel routes to effectively alleviate urban traffic congestion has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention
[0010] In view of the above-mentioned deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides a vehicle traffic management method for alleviating urban traffic congestion. The purpose is to optimize the total number of urban vehicle trips and travel routes through macro-control and scientific management of vehicle traffic, so as to effectively alleviate urban traffic congestion.
[0011] To achieve the above objectives, this invention discloses a vehicle traffic management method for alleviating urban traffic congestion, comprising the following steps:
[0012] Step 1: Use the road segment capacity as the measurement benchmark for vehicle traffic quota. Determine the maximum number of vehicles allowed to have the right of way on the target road segment α per unit time based on the traffic conditions, traffic control requirements, and road service level. At the same time, provide travel time and travel distance as candidate benchmarks for measuring the right of way.
[0013] Step 2: Using a time period as the quota period, and taking the service level of the urban road traffic network within the quota period as the control benchmark, determine the total number of right-of-way to be issued for the road segment within the corresponding quota period from the perspective of traffic demand management and road network service level.
[0014] Step 3: Divide users into three types: family users, enterprise and institution users, and temporary users. Within the effective period W of the vehicle passage quota, allocate road passage rights to the family users and the enterprise and institution users according to the corresponding vehicle passage quota. Also, treat temporary vehicles of out-of-town users entering the city as temporary users and allocate temporary quotas to them.
[0015] The temporary quota must be reapplied for by the temporary user upon expiration or exhaustion.
[0016] Step 4: Dynamic adjustment of vehicle traffic. By collecting and analyzing real-time traffic flow, road congestion, emergencies, and weather conditions, the right-of-way quota for each road segment α is dynamically adjusted.

[0088] Among them, Com e (W) is the vehicle access quota of the e-th enterprise / institution user within the effective period W of the vehicle access quota usage;

[0147] The beneficial effects of this invention are:
[0148] This invention optimizes the total number of urban vehicle trips and travel routes through macro-control and scientific management of vehicle traffic, thereby effectively alleviating urban traffic congestion.
[0149] The following will further explain the concept, specific structure, and technical effects of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, so as to fully understand the purpose, features, and effects of the present invention. Attached Figure Description
[0150] Figure 1 A flowchart of an embodiment of the present invention is shown. Detailed Implementation
[0151] Example
[0152] like Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle traffic management method aimed at alleviating urban traffic congestion includes the following steps:
[0153] Step 1: Use the road segment capacity as the measurement benchmark for vehicle traffic quota. Based on the traffic conditions, traffic control requirements, and road service level of the target road segment α, determine the maximum number of vehicles allowed to have the right of way of road segment α per unit time. At the same time, provide travel time and travel distance as candidate benchmarks for measuring the right of way.
[0154] In step 1, providing travel time and distance as candidate benchmarks for right-of-way measurement can facilitate different cities to determine different measurement benchmarks based on road traffic conditions.
[0155] Step 2: Using a time period as the quota period, and taking the service level of the urban road traffic network within the quota period as the control benchmark, determine the total number of right-of-way to be issued for the corresponding road segments within the quota period from the perspective of traffic demand management and road network service level.
[0156] In step 2, the total number of right-of-way permits for any road segment α can be calculated, updated, and managed by government departments, such as traffic management departments, based on road traffic conditions and travel demand over a certain period of time, with traffic demand management and road network service level as control objectives, in order to prevent serious congestion in the urban road network.
[0157] Step 3: Divide users into three types: family users, enterprise and institution users, and temporary users. Within the effective period W of the vehicle passage quota, allocate road passage rights to family users and enterprise and institution users according to the corresponding vehicle passage quota, and treat temporary vehicles of out-of-town users entering the city as temporary users and allocate temporary quotas accordingly.
[0158] Temporary users need to reapply when their temporary quota expires or is used up.
[0159] In practical applications, the first step is to determine the effective period W for the use of vehicle passage quotas.
[0160] Vehicle passage quotas can only be used within the corresponding valid period W. Unused quotas cannot be accumulated with the quotas of the next quota period. Before the arrival of the next valid period W, the remaining vehicle passage quotas within the valid period W of this vehicle passage quota will be cleared to zero.
[0161] In practical applications, the effective period W for using vehicle passage quotas is generally one week, two weeks, or one month.
[0162] Secondly, users are divided into three types: family users, enterprise and institution users, and temporary users, and road access rights are allocated to registered family users and enterprise and institution users within the city.
[0163] For family users, the total vehicle passage quota is allocated to each family based on factors such as residence location, number of family members, number of family vehicles, and family study / work space, starting from meeting the family's basic travel needs, to satisfy their travel within the quota period.
[0164] Vehicle traffic quotas for family users should meet basic needs while also ensuring social equity.
[0165] For enterprise users, the total vehicle passage quota is allocated to each enterprise based on its registered entity, taking into account factors such as its address, number of employees, number of commuter vehicles, and nature of the entity. The allocation is designed to meet the normal operation, construction, and production needs of the enterprise or institution and to satisfy its travel needs within the quota period.
[0166] For vehicle access quotas for enterprise and institutional users, it is necessary to ensure both operational efficiency and social efficiency.
[0167] In addition, to facilitate out-of-town users to enter the city for socio-economic activities and to prevent urban users from using out-of-town license plates, temporary vehicles used by out-of-town users when entering the city will be treated as temporary users and allocated temporary quotas. When the temporary quota expires or is used up, a new application must be made. Out-of-town vehicles are not allowed to stay in the city for a long time, and the corresponding temporary quota will be cleared when leaving the city.
[0168] Typically, step 3 is mainly handled by government departments for verification, calculation, allocation, maintenance, and updating.
[0169] Step 4: Dynamic adjustment of vehicle traffic. By collecting and analyzing real-time traffic flow, road congestion, emergencies, and weather conditions, the right-of-way quota for each road segment α is dynamically adjusted.
[0170] Traffic congestion can be caused by traffic accidents or road construction.
[0171] In practical applications, when congestion or emergencies occur on a certain road segment α, the traffic quota for that road segment α will be reduced according to the actual situation, while the traffic quota for surrounding alternative road segments will be increased to achieve dynamic allocation and optimization of traffic flow. Step 4 automatically adjusts the quota by real-time monitoring and analysis of traffic data to ensure smooth and efficient operation of urban traffic. Typically, Step 4 is mainly implemented, managed, and maintained by the intelligent transportation system of the traffic management center.
[0172] Step 5: Vehicle passage quota points settlement. When the effective period W for each vehicle passage quota ends, the unused vehicle passage quota and temporary quota are settled and converted into points, which are stored in the personal accounts of the corresponding family users, corresponding enterprise users, or corresponding temporary users.
[0173] In practical applications, points in a personal account can be used to pay for other transportation expenses, such as parking fees, tolls, and fines.
[0174] The specific rules and ratios for redeeming points will be formulated by the traffic management department based on the actual situation to ensure the fairness and effectiveness of the points system.
[0175] Meanwhile, the vehicle passage quota points clearing module also provides functions such as points inquiry and redemption records, making it convenient for users to understand and manage their points usage.
[0176] Step 5, through a points-based reward mechanism, encourages users to use vehicle passage quotas rationally, thereby improving the flexibility of traffic management and user satisfaction. Typically, Step 5 is primarily managed and maintained by the traffic management department.

[0190] Then each element in the set P of OD pairs formed by each pair of starting nodes γ and ending nodes s of all main road segments k is represented as p(γ,s), p∈P;
[0191] The set of main road segments k corresponding to each p(γ,s) is K. p , k∈K p ;

[0195] The time period for controlling the total number of vehicles is defined as T;
[0196] The time period T for controlling the total number of vehicles is equal to the quota period.

[0198] Then ∑t=T;
[0199] Step 2.4: Determine the service level α of all road segments α in the urban road traffic network during each time period t, as follows:
[0200] The control service level of each road segment α in each time period t is defined as LV(α,t);
[0201] Then, under LV(α,t), the controlled traffic flow rate for each road segment α is... The control speed τ(t) is as follows:
