Taking the variable lane as a research object, the paper designs the detector layout plan according the traffic flow characteristics. Then, it determines the invariable lane's attribute according to the detector data and proposes the signalized control method of invariable lanes. In order to avoid the traffic flow confusion at approaches because of the drivers entering into the wrong traffic lane when the lane’s attribute is changed, paper lays out a fictitious stop line and proposed a pre-signal control method based on the fictitious stop line. The suggested strategy was verified with simulation software VISSIM. The results showed that this article method may enhance the road intersection traveling capability and reduces the delay by comparing with different channelization and control methods.
