Application of Simulation Softwares on Urban Roads

There are many problems of traffic jams on urban roads.Simulation softwares can simulate traffic flows which change with proper actions and export different indications,which can make a foundation for later traffic management.Using three softwares of VISSIM、SYNCHRO and TSIS to simulate an intersection in Yangzhou city,we have got relative ways to improve this situation.The final result shows that VISSIM is the best of the three to do the simulation and measure the indications:the maximum queue length,the level of service and the delay time.The delay time is 19s in practice and VISSIM shows 19.1 s.The level of service in this intersection is B,which agrees with VISSIM.So the result is a new way for the development of simulation softwares.
