Abstract: Abstract This work summarizes insights related to bidirectional traffic on a stretch containing bottleneck segments. On a bottleneck segment, concurrent traveling of vehicles in opposite direction is restricted. The considerations are motivated by the ship traffic at the Kiel Canal which connects the North and Baltic Seas and is operated bidirectionally. Since ships register their travel requests only on short notice, we investigate the Canal’s ship traffic additionally in the online setting.
