Cooperative driving at isolated intersections attracted great interest and had been well discussed in recent years. However, cooperative driving in multi-intersection road networks remains to be further investigated, because many algorithms for isolated intersection cannot be directly adopted for road networks. In this paper, we propose a distributed strategy to appropriately decompose the problem into small-scale sub-problems that address vehicle cooperation within limited temporal-spatial areas and meanwhile assure appropriate coordination between adjacent areas by specially designed information exchange. Simulation results demonstrate the efficiency-complexity balanced advantage of the proposed strategy under various traffic demand settings.
