Traffic Simulation Software (such as VISSIM, Synchro)

Traffic simulation software like VISSIM and Synchro models how vehicles and pedestrians move through transportation networks. These tools help engineers and planners visualize and analyze traffic flow, congestion, and the impact of changes such as new roads or signal timing. By creating a virtual environment, they enable testing of different scenarios to optimize traffic management, reduce delays, and improve safety. These simulations are based on real-world data, providing valuable insights for designing efficient, effective transportation systems before implementing physical changes.
