Papers were presented on the state-of-the-art in street traffic control by computers, freeway surveillance and control by computers, and algorithms for computer traffic control. Research and development needs in the general area of computer traffic control were discussed. The application of computers to the control of traffic on city streets has been underway for 15 years, and to the control of traffic on freeways for 10 years. Those metropolitan centers which have installed successful computer traffic control systems have found that all segments of traffic, including buses, private cars, and even pedestrians benefit from improved traffic flow. The improved flow decreases fuel consumption and air pollution. Numerous metropolitan centers are considering or planning computer traffic control installations.
