Systems and methods described herein relate to traffic-flow regulation via centralized lateral flow control. One embodiment receives, at a locality manager that regulates traffic flow on a roadway via lateral flow control, aggregated macroscopic traffic state information from a section manager that communicates with one or more connected vehicles in a section of the roadway; processes the aggregated macroscopic traffic state information at the locality manager using a reinforcement-learning-based model to determine target lateral flows for two or more lanes of the roadway in the section of the roadway; and transmits the target lateral flows from the locality manager to the section manager, which converts the target lateral flows to lane-change actions and transmits the lane-change actions to the one or more connected vehicles.
