description If dedicate a lane to connected autonomous vehicle (CAV) on a multilane road, the traffic congestion and safety risks remain a major problem but in a different style. Random and disorderly mandatory lane-changing behaviour before approaching the next ramp or intersection would have a disturbing effect on the following vehicles of the traffic flow. This paper mainly establishes the optimal mandatory lane-changing location matching model for each target vehicle in the dedicated CAV lane environment. The aim is to minimizing the total travel time, which could take the disturbing effect into account. This model nests the cell transmission model (CTM) to describe vehicle running. The constraints include the relation between target CAV lane-changing cell and the corresponding behaviour start time, the updating of the flow, and occupancy for varied cells. We use the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm to solve the problem. Through the case study of a basic two-lane road scenario in Ningbo, we acquire the convergence results based on the ACO algorithm. Our optimal lane-changing location matching scheme can save 5.9% total travel time when compared to the near-end location lane-changing scheme. We test our model by increasing the total number of upstream input vehicles with 4%, 11%, 15%, and the mandatory lane-changing vehicles with 60%, 200%, respectively. The testing results prove that out optimization method could deal with varied road traffic flow situations. Specifically, when the traffics and mandatory lane-changing vehicles increase, our method could perform better.
