Optimal Lane Allocation Strategy in Toll Stations for Mixed Human-Driven and Autonomous Vehicles by Zuoyu Chai, Tanghong Ran, Min Xu

“…To fully leverage the congestion reduction potential of ETC, this paper addresses the problem of ETC lane allocation at toll stations under heterogeneous traffic flows, modeling it as a mixed-integer nonlinear bilevel programming problem (MINLBP). The objective is to minimize total toll station travel time by optimizing the number of ETC lanes at station entrances and exits while considering ETC-HVs’ lane selection behavior based on the user equilibrium principle. …”
