A traffic simulation package using the opportunity model.

This paper describes the system and components derived for the purpose of traffic simulation as done in New York State. All of the programs have been written in COBOL or ALGOL for the Burroughs B-5500. The system is designed to select a test plan from a composite network, assign traffic to the plan using the opportunity model, summarize the benefit cost data for analysis purposes and, finally prepare data for use on an automatic plotting device.
