Abstract: In this paper, we proposed a model based on the connected vehicles to control the traffic flow at the intersection. To evaluate this model, we studied its impact on the flux and the probability of accidents at the intersection. On the one hand, simulation results showed that the increase in the number of connected vehicles decreases the congestion coefficient and enhances the traffic situation in the system. On the other hand, connected vehicles reduce the probability of accidents at the intersection. In this way, the vehicle intersection (central controller) communication can decrease the congestion and enhance road safety, especially in the intermediate and high traffic conditions.
