TRL Software's off line software package
491 TRL Software’s off-line software package, Transyt 14.1, is widely used by consultancies and government organisations to design, model and study everything from individual isolated junctions to large and complex networks.TRL says Transyt is owes its success to its ability to quickly assess individual junction performance and produce optimum fixed-time coordinated traffic signal timings to reduce queues, delays and the economic cost of congestion. New product Transyt Online extends the software’s functionality and allows optimised signal plans to be sent directly to on-street controllers to allow frequent and automated remote retiming.Brazilian signal company Tesc will be working exclusively with TRL Software to promote, sell and deploy Transyt Online software across Brazil. In addition, a p Portuguese translation of Transyt 14.1 will shortly be available, developed in cooperation with TRL’s partner Modelle, while Russian versions of Transyt 14.1 software and Transyt Online, developed in partnership with RIPAS, TRL’s partner for Transyt Online in Russia, is also now available to existing Transyt 14 customers.

A 2011 study by IBM of 20 cities around the world found that nearly six out of ten drivers had abandoned their search for a parking space at least once; while motorists generally spent on average 20 minutes looking for a sought-after spot.

    Michael Marsico, Andrew Weeks, Keir Opie and Murat Ayçin explain the application of hybrid traffic simulation to a planning study in New York City. Traffic modelling, particularly mesoscopic-microscopic hybrid simulation, has played a key role in planning for the future of one of America's shortest interstates, the 1.3-mile Sheridan Expressway. New York City has just completed a two-year, interagency study federally funded by a TIGER II grant on how to improve the Sheridan Expressway and its surroundi

    Conventional cost benefit analysis (CBA) of plans for urban smart mobility initiatives needs serious rethinking, according to a recently-completed European study. The three-year Evidence Project (the Project) emerged in response to concerns about the availability and quality of documented research – including CBA – required to prove that investment in sustainable urban mobility plans (SUMPs) can be economically beneficial. Covering 22 sectors ranging from electric vehicles to shared spaces, the Project clai
