Abstract

This paper is aimed to design the toll plaza and its merging pattern to relieve the congestion as much as possible. Firstly, we calculate the necessary number of tollbooths for L traffic lanes to avoid jam in the fan-out area is 4L. Secondly, we want to decide the arranging shape of tollbooths. Compared traditional barrier toll with tollbooths, we are considering another shape to arrange tollbooths to avoid the shortcoming of traditional merging pattern that the overlapping area of neighboring vehicles' driving track often cause crash. Our model includes innovative and pioneering thinking and is especially suitable for autonomous vehicles, which means it will have extensive application in the future.
