Abstract : ALINEA, which was introduced almost thirty years ago, remains certainly the most well known feedback loop for ramp metering control. A theoretical proof of its efficiency at least when the traffic conditions are rather mild is given here, perhaps for the first time. It relies on tools stemming from the new model-free control and the corresponding "intelligent" proportional controllers. Several computer experiments confirm our theoretical investigations.
