Evaluation of one-way/two-way street systems using CORSIM simulation

The main focus of this study is to compare the traffic impact of converting a two-way street to a one-way street of a hypothetical sub-network in an urban transport network using TSIS/CORSIM (Traffic Software Integrated System) software, Version 5.0.

Description
Summary:The main focus of this study is to compare the traffic impact of converting a two-way street to a one-way street of a hypothetical sub-network in an urban transport network using TSIS/CORSIM (Traffic Software Integrated System) software, Version 5.0. TSIS includes both NETSIM (Network Simulation of Arterial Roads) and FRESIM (Freeway Simulation). In this study, NETSIM (alternatively known as CORSIM) will only be used as the simulation is confined to an urban road network so that the effects of traffic control and Transportation Systems Management (TSM) strategies on the network performance can be evaluated.
