I made a Freedom of Information request to learn what happened in Sydney when traffic signal cycle times were made 20 seconds faster.

I've also done some basic analysis and embedded Observable charts. All documents and code is open source! Curious to hear what you think.

I caught this on MeFi and was about to post it here. I hope it catches more interest

That was very interesting. Apparently continuous flow models beat batch processing for traffic management.
