How To Benefit From Braess’s Paradox?

Published on February 17, 2022 by Hemanth

How To Benefit From Braess's Paradox? A road network that connects START to END. There are two paths available: one through junction A, and another through junction B. Time taken for traversing START-A = 110 minutes. Time taken to traverse A-END = T/10, where T is the number of cars on the route. Time taken for START-B = T/10, where T is the number of cars on the route. Time taken for B-END = 110 minutes.
Braess’s paradox originates from the observation that overall traffic efficiency in a road network decreases after one or more roads are added to the network.
