The paper investigates routing control issues for a simple freeway network. With the aid of the simulation tool METANET, feedback routing controllers of bang-bang, P, PI, and LQI types are designed and tested. The influence of various factors such as compliance rate, demands, OD, control interval length, and incidents is carefully investigated. Simulation results indicate that feedback routing controllers based on the real-time measurement of instantaneous travel times can efficiently equalize experienced travel times along the alternative routes within the network. Furthermore, the feedback routing controllers work robustly in many perturbed situations.
