An architecture to maximize vehicular traffic flow. A method comprises receiving from database equipment a key performance indicator value representing an aggregation of connections that exist between serving equipment situated in a first vicinity of a first area and a group of user equipment traveling through the first vicinity, based on the key performance indicator value, generating a density map for the first vicinity, overlaying the density map over a group of roadways associated with the first vicinity, based on a width value associated with a roadway of the group of roadways, a defined vehicular throughput value associated with the roadway, and a demand penalty value associated with the roadway, determining a maximum vehicular throughput for the group of roadways, and based on the maximum vehicular throughput, causing a user equipment to display a ranked list of routes between the first vicinity and a second vicinity of a second area.

Vehicular traffic flow optimization

In one example, a processing system including at least one processor may receive a first set of location reports for a device in an environment including a plurality of wireless beacons, determine, based on the first set of location reports for the device, a first location of the device in the environment, initiate, based on the first location of the device in the environment, a sending of a content item toward the device, receive a second set of location reports for the device, determine, based on the second set of location reports for the device, a second location of the device in the environment, and provide, based on the first location of the device in the environment and the second location of the device in the environment, a metric indicative of an effectiveness of the content item in causing movement of a user of the device in the environment.
