Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the development of information technology, traffic signal control is moving towards a networked and intelligent era. Networked and intelligent signal control systems can realize the interconnection and intercommunication of on-road signal control equipment and vehicles, and become part of this. A high degree of vehicle–road coordination is the ultimate goal of the development of the new generation of traffic signal control.
The purpose of this Special Issue is to show the latest research results of traffic signals, which can guide the development of related research in the field of traffic signals to the direction of networking and intelligence.
