Trams in urban transport have seen rapid growth in recent years, yet poor coordination between it and other vehicles hinders the full achievement of its potential in the transport system. To cope with the current lack of study on green wave with respect to trams, a progression model is put forward in this paper based on the MAXBAND model and the multi-path progression model. The proposed model mainly addresses the specific scenario in the arterial green-wave design with tram: one tram travels along the artery in one direction while another in the opposite direction turns right at one of the arterial intersections. In this model, the goal of optimization is the bandwidth of general vehicles under the constraint of some expected bandwidth for tram green wave. Phase sequence at each intersection serves as a decision variable. The calculation of this model shows that it proffers satisfactory results and offers a feasible solution.
