Infrastructure adapted to the needs of traffic management
A simulation model is a representation of reality in a digital environment. Simulations allow us to answer the question “what if” in the most visual way.
By performing simulations, we can change sufficient solutions into optimal solutions. We help adapting infrastructure to traffic needs. There is no need to complete the project before finishing simulations. On the contrary, it is best to include simulations in the earliest possible stage of a project. This enables decision-makers to implement solutions based on results of traffic analyses, thereby adapting project to traffic needs.
In road traffic simulations, we model the infrastructure and traffic management solutions to reflect the behaviour of road users (tram-, bus- and car drivers, cyclists and pedestrians). Traffic modelling supports planning, management and optimization of transport systems.
Traffic microsimulations carried out by us contain:
In our simulations, we take into account not only cars, but also pedestrians, cyclists, and public transport vehicles – buses, trams, trains… We support decision-makers especially when infrastructure and traffic organization are complex, where different transport systems interact with each other, and the effects of solutions are not easy to predict.
All of us are participants in road traffic. We use different transport systems. Optimized infrastructure and traffic organization have an impact on our daily functioning and safety. That is why it is so crucial to design it in a well-thought-out manner, and to verify all solutions beforehand.
Road traffic microsimulations provide enormous support to the design team. Thanks to the traffic model it is possible to verify solutions and optimize them in time.
Rail infrastructure design requires special care. Network capacity is provided for individual trains, so the design must consider all expected traffic and appropriate reserve, as well as ensuring resistance to disruptions in traffic.
A modern railway network cannot be based on rough estimates, which is why we conduct micro-simulations of train traffic, which help to plan infrastructure that is adequate to the needs and makes good use of investment funds.
We have extensive experience in operational analyses of all elements of the rail network. We have completed numerous projects successfully meeting the needs of Polish rail infrastructure managers and investors.
We know the guidelines, regulations and standards, and above all – we know our railway lines.
Pedestrian traffic is undoubtedly the most important transport system. Even a passenger who travels by car, has to walk the final part of the journey from the parking lot. We use pedestrian traffic simulations where pedestrian and vehicle traffic takes place in the same space to ensure its safety and fluidity. In addition, we use pedestrian traffic simulations to create complex solutions for pedestrian traffic: transfer hubs (especially nearby railway stations) or facilities serving mass events. Whenever the guidelines indicate solutions being “adapted to the scale of traffic”, our simulations allow us to provide answers.
