Abstract

As urban traffic congestion lengthens, the road network is likely to form a saturation cycle gradually. Solving the traffic congestion problem of the intersection group can effectively alleviate the overall congestion problem of the road network. The critical path is the entry point for the signal coordination controlling of the intersection group. In order to improve the existing critical path identification methods in which the number of intersections within a path is small and tend to fall into local critical path, this paper proposes a critical path identification method for intersection group considering path relevance. Firstly, the intersection group is abstracted as a road network undirected graph. Secondly, this paper improves the traditional ant colony algorithm including the state transfer probability criterion and the pheromone update mechanism. Finally, a case study is conducted for a local road network intersection group in the main urban area of Yiwu City. The result presents that the method proposed in this paper is significantly better than the breadth-first search algorithm in terms of the total number of paths identified and relevance degree values of critical paths. This method increases the convergence speed and can identify the global critical paths accurately.
