Abstract: Abstract By means of extensive Monte Carlo simulation, we have investigated the traffic flow characteristics in a single signalised intersection via developing Nagel-Schreckenberg cellular automata model. A set of traffic lights operating in two schemes controls the traffic flow. A closed boundary condition is applied to the streets, each of which conducts a unidirectional flow. It is shown that there exists a plateau region in fundamental diagrams inside which the total outflow remains almost.
