transportation simulation

Transportation simulation is a method used to model and analyze how people, vehicles, and goods move within a transportation system. By using computer software, planners can create virtual representations of roadways, transit systems, and traffic patterns. This allows them to test various scenarios—like changes in traffic rules, new public transit routes, or the impact of road construction—without real-world consequences. The insights gained help improve efficiency, reduce congestion, and enhance safety by informing better decision-making in urban planning and transportation management.
