Abstract: The problem of the optimal control of an oversaturated intersection, originally proposed by Gazis and Potts (1965), is reviewed and a feedback solution is obtained for a multi-stream pattern under general assumptions on the variability of input flows and control constraints. The dissaturation control problem is solved in two steps: first, the least dissaturation time is evaluated by taking into account the green split constraints; then a minimum waiting time problem over the least dissaturation horizon is solved to select the optimal output rate pattern.
