Abstract:

An equivalent continuous time optimal control problem is formulated for dynamic user-optimized traffic assignment with elastic travel demand. Using the Pontryagin minimum principle, optimality conditions are derived and economic interpretations that correspond to a dynamic generalization of Wardrop's first principle are provided. The existence and optimality of singular controls are examined. Under steady-state assumptions, the model is shown to be a proper dynamic extension of Beckmann's equivalent optimization problem for static user-optimized traffic assignment with elastic demand. Finally, limitations and extensions of the present model are discussed.
