Abstract
Gridlock is one of the big issues in traffic simulation. It deteriorates the road network performance as different vehicles block their courses each other. This study classified the problems in the case of a single intersection and multiple intersections. Then, a measure to avoid gridlock situation was proposed and its effect was verified. As a result, the gridlock in a single intersection which contains a loop of short links can be solved by adding virtual diagonal links. [This abstract is not included in the PDF]
