Today's fixed-cycle traffic signaling is highly suboptimal and aggregates traffic congestion and waste of energy in urban areas. In addition, it offers no quality-of-service guarantee and makes travel time prediction extremely hard. While existing traffic light control research primarily focuses on improving the average wait time of cars, we study in this paper how traffic light scheduling affects the worst-case wait time. In particular, we derive the time a car spends at an intersection in the best-case and the worst-case, respectively. Using the theoretical results, we propose a simple but effective controller and run simulation to verify its performance. The result shows that it works much better than fixed-cycle controllers in both light and heavy traffic scenarios.
