Abstract: Summary Continuum models for traffic flows may serve as a tool for the optimal management of traffic. From the mathematical point of view, the development of a control theory for conservation laws is still at its beginning. From the engineering point of view, both the optimality criteria and the selection of the controllable parameters seem far from being standardized. This note presents first some recently introduced continuum models, then some optimal management problem are discussed.
