description Traffic control strategy plays a significant role in obtaining sustainable objectives because it not only improves traffic mobility but also enhances traffic management systems. It has been developed and applied by the research community in recent years and still offers various challenges and issues that may require the attention of researchers and engineers. Recent technological developments toward connected and automated vehicles are beneficial for improving traffic safety and achieving sustainable goals. There is a need to develop a survey on traffic control techniques, which could provide the recent developments in the traffic control strategy and could be useful in obtaining sustainable goals. This survey presents a comprehensive investigation of traffic control techniques by carefully reviewing existing methods from a new perspective and reviews various traffic control strategies that play an important role in achieving sustainable objectives. First, we present traffic control modeling techniques that provide a robust solution to obtain reasonable traffic and sustainable mobilities. These techniques could be helpful for enhancing the traffic flow in a freeway traffic environment. Then, we discuss traffic control strategies that could be helpful for researchers and practitioners to design a robust freeway traffic controller. Second, we present a comprehensive review of recent state-of-the-art methods on the vehicle design control strategy, which is followed by the traffic control design strategy. They aim to reduce traffic emissions and energy consumption by a vehicle. Finally, we present the open research challenges and outline some recommendations which could be beneficial for obtaining sustainable goals in traffic systems and help researchers understand various technical aspects in the deployment of traffic control systems.
