Measures of the sensitivity and effectiveness of the CORQ traffic model. Paper presented at the 54th Annual Meeting of the Transportation Research Board TRB, Washington, January 1975.

The traffic simulation model on corridor queuing CORQ, was tested and use to prodict the effects of some alternative traffic control schemes designed to relieve a bottleneck on the Ottawa Queensway. The model was found to be sensitive to a variety of strategies including the metering or closure or both of freeway ramps, revised red-green splits at traffic signals, and restriping or channelization.
