With the growth of urban road traffic volume and the increase of road network density, correlation between adjacent road intersections is becoming more and more obvious. An intersection traffic signal adjustment tends to affect the smooth traffic flow of a number of adjacent intersections. Its congestion may gradually spread to a few blocks and regions all around the intersection. Therefore, increasingly high demands for urban traffic signal control make a variety of advanced control technology integrated, so as to adjust the intersection control parameter and accordingly achieve a dynamic coordination control over the city traffic. Hopefully, it can satisfy traffic demands and achieve a new dynamic balance between road traffic and transport demand. This paper focuses on the signal timing control over green time extension at adjacent intersections of trunk road by using the collaborative strategy of road green wave effect and path selection entropy, in order to solve the problem of coupling between adjacent intersections, so as to realize the signal coordination control on trunk road. This algorithm makes Signal Timing more flexible.

The cooperation of urban traffic control system and urban traffic flow guidance system may perform an important role in alleviating traffic congestion. To achieve this objective, a dynamic traffic coordination control model of traffic congestion based on synergetics is proposed in this paper. After that approach, a simulation scheme based on VISSIM 4.2 is carried to evaluate the reliability of the model. The results proved that the whole system could benefit a lot.
