The urban traffic control optimization is a complex problem because of the interconnections among the junctions and the dynamical behavior of the traffic flows. Optimization with one control variable in the literature is presented. In this research optimization model consisting of two control variables is developed. Hierarchical bi-level methodology is proposed for realization of integrated optimal control. The urban traffic management is implemented by simultaneously control of traffic light cycles and green light durations of the traffic lights of urban network of crossroads.
