    The authors investigate a constrained phase transition model of hyperbolic conservation laws with application in the vehicular light or heavy traffic flows. They consider the Lighthill-Whitham-Richards model in the free-flow phase and the Aw-Rascle-Zhang model in the congested phase. By applying the wave-front tracking method, the authors prove the global existence of solutions for constrained Cauchy problems.
