Simulation verification and evaluation of the tram signal priority control method

In this paper, 36 common tram signal priority control scenarios were established based on the traffic network form, background traffic flow, tram line form, and signal control mode. Based on the summary of engineering practice, an evaluation index system of tram signal priority effect was designed for the tram, social vehicles, and the overall situation of intersections. A microscopic traffic simulation model was constructed for different scenarios, and the evaluation and analysis were carried out.
