TRL Software has entered in a distribution agreement with Florida based McTrans, to distribute ARCADY and ARCADY Lite in North America.

Already available via the McTrans Store, ARCADY is based on three decades of research and development by TRL and is used for predicting capacities, queues, delays and accident risk at roundabouts.

ARCADY Lite is the next step in easy modelling and analysis of roundabout designs and features ARCADY and HCM-2010 modelling capability in an easy-to-use intuitive interface. Results can be obtained quickly and easily after entering basic geometric and traffic data options that have been chosen to reflect the most common usage in North America.

Gavin Jackman, TRL’s head of Traffic and Software said:  “This agreement is yet another step in our commitment to selecting the right partners and to further our software use in the North American market.”
