Historical based traffic assignment in microsimulation for advanced traveller information systems assessments

Abstract

In dynamic models, like microsimulation, dynamic traffic assignment is based on the use of traffic conditions measured during the simulation process in order to keep o sort of equilibrium between demand and supply. Route choices are consequently done by knowing the traffic conditions of the day. This paper suggest another model, more realistic, based on an historical drivers knowledge obtained by an iterative process. This new model, splitting drivers in different knowledge categories, allows more relevant ATIS evaluation.

Traffic flow

In mathematics and transportation engineering, traffic flow is the study of interactions between travellers (including pedestrians, cyclists, drivers, and their vehicles) and infrastructure (including highways, signage, and traffic control devices), with the aim of understanding and developing an optimal transport network with efficient movement of traffic and minimal traffic congestion problems.

Three-phase traffic theory

Three-phase traffic theory is a theory of traffic flow developed by Boris Kerner between 1996 and 2002. It focuses mainly on the explanation of the physics of traffic breakdown and resulting congested traffic on highways. Kerner describes three phases of traffic, while the classical theories based on the fundamental diagram of traffic flow have two phases: free flow and congested traffic.

Traffic

Traffic comprises pedestrians, vehicles, ridden or herded animals, trains, and other conveyances that use public ways (roads) for travel and transportation. Traffic laws govern and regulate traffic, while rules of the road include traffic laws and informal rules that may have developed over time to facilitate the orderly and timely flow of traffic. Organized traffic generally has well-established priorities, lanes, right-of-way, and traffic control at intersections.
