Macroscopic Dynamic Lane Allocation for Ride-Sharing Vehicles: Incorporating Local Correction Factor
Résumé
Modern transportation systems are increasingly challenged by rising diversity and density in urban traffic, driven by technological advancements and increased travel demands. Dynamic lane allocation provides a pivotal solution by adapting lane usage based on real-time traffic conditions to enhance urban mobility and mitigate congestion. This research introduces a novel dynamic lane allocation strategy that allows ride-sharing vehicles access to dedicated bus lanes during select periods and locations to alleviate urban congestion. We use the MnMS (Multimodal Network Modeling and Simulation) framework, which employs a trip-based Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD) to support diverse travel options and accelerate computation. Additionally, this study integrates a Local Correction Factor (LCF) that refines speed estimations on individual links for more accurate and realistic route choices. In this study, a Large Neighborhood Search (LNS) optimization solver is employed to efficiently solve complex problems by exploring extensive solution neighborhoods iteratively. Experiments on a 6x6 Manhattan grid network show that optimized dynamic lane allocation significantly outperforms static lane usage, particularly under high demand, reducing total travel time by approximately 15.3%. The proposed approach is identified as crucial for urban traffic management, offering substantial potential to reduce congestion and enhance mobility in densely populated cities.
