Hypercongestion is the situation where a certain traffic flow occurs at a combination of low speed and high density … for such hypercongestion, but does not explicitly describe the dynamic process leading up to hypercongestion. Earlier … studies of hypercongestion on single links have, however, confirms that such dynamic processes are important to consider. The …

This paper presents a dynamic model of road traffic congestion based on simple carfollowing theory, allowing for finite …’s dynamic model of bottleneck congestion. Therefore, the model presented here offers an integration and a generalization of …
