The objective of this study is to enhance understanding of the sensitivity of traffic assignment results to variations in the parameters used to represent the transport system including: travel-time functions, volume-delay functions at intersections and the number of traffic zones. The study investigates the sensitivity to changes in those parameters, using EMME/2 traffic assignment software. In this paper, the previous studies on sensitivity analysis of the equilibrium flows respect to different travel-time functions and traffic zoning methods are reviewed in section 2. A brief summary of the supply and demand information of Shiraz City, Iran is presented in section 3. The general procedure of this study and the obtained results are explained in section 4 and finally the main outcomes of this study are concluded in the last section.
