A traffic simulation model was developed to provide a methodology for traffic signal timing in oversaturated urban arterial networks. Two control objectives of traffic signal timing in oversaturated conditions were taken into consideration. One was to maximize the number of vehicles processed in an arterial network which has an oversaturated traffic demand at the entry of the arterial street and moderate traffic demands at the entry of cross streets. The other was to prevent queue spillback or to minimize the occurrence of queue spillback if inevitable.
