Comments and Suggestions for Authors

This paper describes the impacts of tranisition of control (ToC) and dedicated lanes (DLs) that have the potential to significantly improve traffic flow, travel time reliability, and emissions, contributing to sustainable urban mobility. Simulations on Sioux Falls test network suggest that the proposed methodology may offer optimal results and can effectively manage heavy traffic flows in peak hours.

The paper is well-written and provides an insight into an interesting research problem related to autonomous vehicles management in a hybrid traffic flow.

What is the composition of the urban traffic in the microscpic profiles simulation. i.e. how many cars, buses and other vehicles? Does it make any impact on the simulation results?

What are the limitations of your study? Please mention.
