摘要
Traffic congestion has grown considerably in the United States over the past 20 years. In this paper, we develop a robust decision support tool based on simulation optimization to evaluate and recommend congestion mitigation strategies to transportation system decision-makers. A tabu search-based optimizer determines different network design strategies on the road network while a traffic simulator evaluates the goodness of fit. The tool is tested with real-world traffic data. Journal of the Operational Research Society (2011) 62, 1971-1982. doi:10.1057/jors.2010.168 Published online 15 December 2010
