Abstract

When the Winter Olympic Games were held, several roads were divided into exclusive lanes for the Winter Olympics to ensure the smooth passage of Winter Olympic vehicles. This reduced the number of lanes available for private vehicles, which caused a temporary tidal traffic phenomenon that led to traffic congestion and increased exhaust emissions. Temporary reversible lanes were added to the object lane to alleviate the temporary tide traffic phenomenon. A bi-level programming model was developed based on the principle of the minimum construction cost and the minimum total travel time of the road network. Meanwhile, three heuristics algorithms were used to solve the problem. The results show that the reasonable addition of temporary reversible lanes during the Olympic Games can reduce the total system travel cost, solve the temporary tidal traffic phenomenon, and alleviate traffic congestion.
