Abstract

Vehicle traffic on a section of a freeway near an on-ramp is simulated by a Monte Carlo model. Ability of the model to represent actual traffic flow is investigated by observing operational systems and making comparisons with results from corresponding simulations. Measures of effectiveness are used that compare statistics for operational systems with values of the properties for corresponding simulations.
