Relieving the Congestion around a School via Automatic Vehicle Identification Technology-Based Traffic Measures

Recently, many parents drive their children to and from schools, leading to serious road congestion around the school gate. The school-related congestion is a special type of congestion caused by periodic impulsive aggregation of specific travellers for certain events. In this study, the individual...
