Abstract
This paper presents the Dynamic Merge Metering (DMM) control strategy to integrate the Dynamic Late Merge control with a merge meter at the downstream taper area of a work zone. In this method, vehicles arriving at a work zone will be instructed in the advance areas of the work zone to stay in their lanes till they reach the beginning of the lane closure. Here the vehicles wait for a green signal like any signalized intersection. The delay penalty is distributed equally in both lanes. A simulation-based method is used with VISSIM to evaluate the performance of DMM.
