"We look forward to offering high quality, on-the-ground support to the many local consultancies, universities and government authorities who use Aimsun," said TSS managing director, Jaime L.

To complement the opening of its London office, TSS will be holding the 2014 edition of the European Aimsun Users' Meeting in the capital in early October.
