Multimodal Multiscale Urban Traffic Control in Connected and Automated Cities

The University of Washington (UW) team has been developing an integrative multiscale modeling and control framework for urban traffic control, partially supported by previous C2SMART UTC funds. Previous research, however, focused only on vehicular traffic. The proposed research will be based on the existing work, which will be expanded to consider multimodal traffic (especially non-motorized road users such as pedestrians and bicyclists) and explore the opportunities to test/validate the models using real-world connected and automated vehicle (CAV) testbeds.
