Abstract

For the sake of providing scientific the theoretical basis for establishing appropriate counts of toll booth on freeway, we build a delay time model which is established by hydro-mechanics theory and queuing theory. Using this model which can get the average total delay time required for a vehicle to pass the toll plaza. In the transition stage, traffic flow is compared to fluid. Based on assumptions, we can discuss how the traffic flows at the transition area. Based on queuing theory, average delay time and the number of toll booths can build a connection. In General, when the average total delay time is minimized, then the number of toll booths is optimized.
