Abstract: In this paper, we propose a macro model with consideration of multi static bottlenecks to study the impacts of multi static bottlenecks on traffic flow. The numerical results show that the influences are related to the number of static bottlenecks, the distance between two adjacent static bottlenecks and the initial density.
