摘　　要：Purpose–This paper aims to use activefine lane management methods to solve the problem of congestion in a weaving area and provide theoretical and technical support for traffic control under the environment of intelligent connected vehicles(ICVs)in the future.Design/methodology/approach–By analyzing the traffic capacities and traffic behaviors of domestic and foreign weaving areas and combining them withfield investigation,the paper proposes the active andfine lane management methods for ICVs to optimal driving behavior in a weaving area.The VISSIM simulation of trafficflow vehicle driving behavior in weaving areas of urban expressways was performed using research data.The influence of lane-changing in advance on the weaving area was evaluated and a conflict avoidance area was established in the weaving area.The activefine lane management methods applied to a weaving area were verified for different scenarios.Findings–The results of the study indicate that ICVs complete their lane changes before they reach a weaving area,their time in the weaving area does not exceed the specified time and the delay of vehicles that pass through the weaving area decreases.Originality/value–Based on the vehicle group behavior,this paper conducts a simulation study on the active traffic management control-oriented to ICVs.The research results can optimize the management of lanes,improve the traffic capacity of a weaving area and mitigate traffic congestion on expressways.
