Abstract

This paper describes guidelines for the selection of the appropriate modelling technique for the analysis of road network operation schemes. The guidelines include a worksheet that facilitates in the assessment of four major categories of modelling techniques based on a scoring system. The guidelines were further refined for application to single intersection analysis through a case study. SIDRA and microsimulation models, including fixed-time, vehicle-actuated and SCATSIM models were compared based on field data. The viability of manual calculation techniques was also examined. Based on the findings, a hierarchy of modelling techniques was recommended. (a) For the covering entry of this conference, please see ITRD abstract no. E220164.
