This paper analyses the shortcoming in calculating the length of car queue at intersection using traditional queue theory, and analyzes the principle of traffic congestion. A function of link travel time is developed according to theory of traffic flow wave. The function includes two parts, one is the car running time on non-congestion section of a link, and the other one is the delay time at downriver intersection. The method of computing car running time and the delay time is discussed.
