Connected and automated vehicle (CAV) technology, along with advanced traffic control systems, cannot ensure congestion-free traffic when the number of vehicles exceeds the road capacity. To address this problem, in this paper, we propose a dynamic ride-sharing system based on incentives (for both passengers and drivers) that incorporates travelers of similar routes and time schedules on short notice. The objective is to reduce the number of private vehicles on urban roads by utilizing the available seats properly. We develop a mobile-cloud architecture-based system that enables real-time ride-sharing. The effectiveness of the proposed system is evaluated through microscopic traffic simulation using Simulation of Urban Mobility (SUMO) considering the traffic flow behavior of a real smart city. Moreover, we develop a lab-scale experimental prototype in the form of Internet of Things (IoT) network. The simulation results show that the proposed system reduces fuel consumption, CO2 and CO emissions, and average waiting time of vehicles significantly, while increasing the vehicle’s average speed. Remarkably, it is found that only 2–10% ride-sharing can improve the overall traffic performance.

Carpooling is a mobility concept that has been showing promising results in reducing single occupancy use of private cars, which prompted many institutions, namely universities, to implement carpooling platforms to improve their networks sustainability. Nowadays, currently under a pandemic crisis, public transportation must be used with limitations regarding the number of occupants to prevent the spread of the virus and commuters are turning even more to private cars to perform their daily trips. Carpooling under a set of precaution rules is a potential solution to help commuters perform their daily trips while respecting COVID-19 safety recommendations. This research aimed to develop an analysis of the road traffic and emission impacts of implementing carpooling, with social distancing measures, in three university campus networks through microscopic traffic simulation modeling and microscopic vehicular exhaust emissions estimation. Results indicate that employing carpooling for groups of up to three people to safely commute from their residence area to the university campus has the potential to significantly reduce pollutant emissions (reductions of 5% and 7% in carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxides can be obtained, respectively) within the network while significantly improving road traffic performance (average speed increased by 7% and travel time reduced by 8%).

Intersection Analysis

Klampis Jaya Road, Surabaya City, has a fairly heavy traffic flow, especially during working hours. This resulted in congestion on Klampis Jaya Road and not a few motorists who violated traffic regulations such as turning around Mleto Road. This study aimed to determine the current traffic flow performance and in 2024 at the intersection on Klampis Jaya Road, Surabaya City, predicted the traffic flow performance around the road and intersection on Klampis Jaya Road Surabaya City. The research method used was non-signalized intersection analysis using the Indonesian Road Capacity Manual. The calculation of the traffic performance of the four intersections in Klampis Jaya showed the Degree of Saturation (DS) and Service Level (TP) of each intersection. Traffic performance for the four intersections in 2021 was DS = 0.752 and TP = C (Enough), with the characteristics of stable traffic flow, was restricted movement. The traffic performance for the four intersections in 2024 was DS = 0.95 and TP = D (Less), with the characteristics of traffic flow stable movement being limited.

The Impact

Cooperative and automated vehicles (CAVs) are often considered a mean to improve quality of life in cities, the traffic flow parameters in particular. This paper provides some evidence based on microscopic traffic simulation on how the effects can really be. Important is that the particular use cases are not built in vehicles only. We focus on so called cooperative environment and advanced traffic control measures.This paper describes the impact of CAVs on a cooperative urban environment, resulting from a European research project - MAVEN. We clearly demonstrate that a proper integration of CAVs into city traffic management can, for example, help with respect to the environmental goals and reduce CO2 emissions by up to 12 % (a combination of GLOSA and signal optimization). On corridors with a green wave, a capacity increase of up to 34% was achieved. Already for lower penetra- tion rates (20% penetration of CAVs), there are significant improvements in traffic performance. For example, platooning leads to a decrease of CO2 emissions of 2,6 % or an impact indicator by 17,7%.

Understanding and correctly modeling urban mobility is a crucial issue for the development of smart cities. The estimation of individual trips from mobile phone positioning data (i.e., call detail records (CDR)) can naturally support urban and transport studies as well as marketing applications. Individual trips are often aggregated in an origin–destination (OD) matrix counting the number of trips from a given origin to a given destination. In the literature dealing with CDR data there are two main approaches to extract OD matrices from such data: (a) in time-based matrices, the analysis focuses on estimating mobility directly from a sequence of CDRs; (b) in routine-based matrices (OD by purpose) the analysis focuses on routine kind of movements, like home-work commute, derived from a trip generation model. In both cases, the OD matrix measured by CDR counts is scaled to match the actual number of people moving in the area, and projected to the road network to estimate actual flows on the streets. In this paper, we describe prototypical approaches to estimate OD matrices, describe an actual implementation, and present a number of experiments to evaluate the results from multiple perspectives.

The article considers automated traffic flow control systems, their classification and description. Based on the above, it can be argued that traffic control systems have the characteristics of distributed, discrete and non-stationary complex systems used to solve traffic control problems by modern means of information and computer technology. The object of research is to improve traffic control with the help of automated control systems Purpose - analysis of automated traffic management systems With the rapid growth of the car fleet, there is an overload of the street and road network of cities. Even today, the street and road network does not meet the requirements for the organization and safety of road traffic. A survey of traffic flows shows that the road network operates at the capacity limit, and in some places exceeds this limit. The main reason for this transport situation in cities is the mismatch between the level of motorization and the density of the road network. Therefore, to improve, improve traffic control, it is proposed to use automated traffic management systems. But first you need to analyze them in detail. It is noted that the efficiency of the street and road network depends entirely on the effective balanced operation of all its elements.

Aktivitas putar balik arah pada beberapa bukaan median yang tersedia di sepanjang ruas Jalan Letjen Hertasning disinyalir sebagai pemicu kemacetan lalu lintas sebab pergerakan ini dapat menghambat pergerakan kendaraan pada kedua arah lalu lintas saat kendaraan memerlukan ruang manuver tambahan untuk menyelesaikan gerakan putar balik arah secara penuh. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh pergerakan putar balik arah terhadap kinerja ruas jalan pada Jalan Letjen Hertasning Kota Makassar. Survei lalu lintas dilakukan pada lima pos pengamatan yang dipilih pada lima bukaan median pertama Jalan Letjen Hertasning yang berbatasan langsung dengan Jl. AP Pettarani selama tiga hari untuk segmen jam puncak pagi, siang, dan sore hari. Kinerja ruas jalan dianalisis mengikuti prosedur pada Manual Kapasitas Jalan Indonesia. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa antrian kendaraan saat bermanuver untuk memutar arah khususnya pada jam puncak setara dengan panjang 9 kendaraan atau sepanjang 36 m. Antrian ini menyebabkan kapasitas ruas jalan berkurang sebesar 2,5-10% dari kapasitas sesungguhnya yang menyebabkan terjadinya penurunan kecepatan, peningkatan derajat kejenuhan, dan penurunan tingkat pelayanan ruas jalan Letjen Hertasning. The U-turn movement activities at several median openings available along the Letjen Hertasning road arguably is one of the triggering factors for the occurrence of traffic congestion on that road section because this movement creates hindrances to traffic flow in the same lane and the contra flow when the vehicle requires additional space to complete the movement. The purpose of this study is to reveal the consequence caused by the U-turn movement to the traffic performance of Letjen Hertasning road in Makassar City. The traffic surveys were conducted at five selected observation points at the first five median openings of Jalan Letjen Hertasning which is directly adjacent to Jl. AP Pettarani for three days at three peak hours segment which are in the morning, afternoon, and evening. The analysis of road performance follows the procedures in the Indonesian Road Capacity Manual. Research result shown that the length of vehicles queuing to finish the U-turn movement during the peak hours reached 9 vehicles with a queue length of 36 m. This queue causes the capacity of the road to decrease by 2.5-10% of the actual capacity which causes a decrease in speed, an increase in the degree of saturation, and a reduction in the level of service of the road.
