With the rapid development of urban expressway construction, there are some problems in the actual operation process, which leads to the traffic efficiency not reaching the expected level. Due to the long-term and large amount of actual data is difficult to obtain, this paper uses the method of combining actual data and simulation to explore the traffic operation law of urban expressway weaving area, analyzes the factors affecting the traffic efficiency of weaving area, and applies the variable speed limit guidance control method based on DQN algorithm, which can effectively improve the traffic efficiency of urban expressway weaving area.
