A method for motorway speed control comprises the steps of splitting the motorway into a number of stretches, wherein each stretch includes one or more variable speed limit (VSL) sites that are configured to indicate VSL control settings in form of discrete speed values, defining an initial solution space of each stretch including all possible combinations of VSL control settings, and shrinking the initial solution space of each stretch by applying constraint-based and/or macroscopic traffic analysis-based reduction schemes, and based on the resulting residual solution space, evaluating a combination of VSL control settings as a solution combination for being indicated by said VSL sites of the respective stretch by performing an iterative solution search in which macro-simulations together with a limited number of micro-simulations are applied on selected candidate subsets of combinations of VSL control settings.
