- Abstract
We consider the problem how to optimize the design of highway toll plaza when determined the number of the tollbooths .In order to reasonably arrange the size and shape of the toll plaza on the high-speed road, including fan-in area and fan-out area as we considered,tosatisfy certain throughput (number of vehicles per hour passing the point where the end of the plaza joins the outgoing traffic lanes),and consider the cost and security to achieve the optimal value.By applying the Cellular automata theory we simulate the lane changing phenomenon in the process of car driving, which is a practical social appearance, to meet the need of security and extended this conclusion to maintain the size of toll plaza.
