Correlation degree between adjacent signalised intersections is considered as the most important component in subarea partition algorithm. In this study, contributing factors for subarea partition are selected by taking into consideration the differences with respect to cycle lengths, link length and path flow between upstream and downstream coordinated phases. Their impacts on performance index of subarea partition are further studied using numerical experiments. The study then proceeds to propose a correlation degree index (CI) as an alternative for the performance index in order to reduce the computational complexity. The relationship between CI and the contributing factors is established to predict the correlation degree. Finally, the model is validated using field survey data.
