Use has been made of a general procedure for estimating the relationships between travel-time and traffic flow for all the links of a signal-controlled road network for any given signal timings in a form suitable for use in assignment calculations. The techniques of traffic control and traffic assignment have then been combined to enable the calculation of mutually consistent signal timings and traffic assignment by means of an iterative procedure. There will usually be, in principle, many solutions to such calculations for a given network and given origin-destination movements, and a case is described in which two quite distinct solutions have been found for a small realistic network, using as a starting point in each instance some preconceived initial assignment of traffic.
