Cyber-physical　systems　offer　a　new　theory　to　the　application　of　information　to　improve　traffic　control　system　performance.　This　paper,　oriented　to　the　integration　of　information　and　transportation　processes,　discusses　the　gateway　role　of　the　control　instruction　information　of　the　information　flow,　control　command,　behavioral　control　utility　and　behavioral　control　and　the　reconstruction　of　the　traffic　control　system　model.　Also,　this　paper　analyzes　the　information　flow　amongst　computer　systems,　traffic　sign　systems,　and　travelers　in　the　traffic　control　system.　The　integration　of　information　and　transportation　processes　can　be　realized　by　cyberizing　the　traffic　control　process.　Finally,　this　paper　discusses　the　application　of　new　technologies　in　computing　and　communication　in　the　traffic　control　cyber-physical　systems.　(C)　2013　The　Authors.　Published　by　Elsevier　Ltd.
