Tis paper reports the results of SERC-supported research designed to assess the long-term, network-wide, effect of using two 'standard' locally-responsive signal control policies, allowing in a reasonable way for the day-to-day re-routeing brought about by the responsive control adjustements. The 'standard' control policies tested were : the familiar local delay-minimisation policy, which minimises delay at each junction, and a natural equisaturation policy similar to Webster's, which minimises the maximum degree of saturation at each junction.
