Abstract
The paper discusses methods of traffic flow modelling. The use of stochastic simulation for traffic flow modelling, based on microscopic modelling, is described. The importance of simulation in the investigation of traffic flow, surveillance and traffic control is stressed. The paper presents an algorithm for the prediction of traffic space, speed and traffic flow density. It also presents a stochastic freeway merging simulation model of traffic flow based on digital simulation of event scanning. The results are illustrated. (TRRL)
