Transport models

We develop static and dynamic predictive transport models of any scale and provide them to the Customer with a manual on their use and application. At the request of customers, we perform audits and make recommendations for the improvement of existing transport models.

Today transport models are widely used to help state and local authorities to justify decisions made in transport and urban planning, including the development of transport planning documents.

SIMETRA has developed more than 100 transport models for cities and regions, including the most massive and complex ones.

Transport model — is an instrument to assess qualitatively and quantitatively the consequences of different transport and urban development scenarios for cities and regions.

Transport models are indispensable for the development of transport documentation. All means for the implementation of a master plan development project or any other complex transportation task are evaluated by our experts using a transport model since it allows us to calculate precisely and forecast transport and passenger flows on the road network of a city, region, or entire country.

Development of transport documentation

SIMETRA develops projects for the improvement of transport and pedestrian services in the area. That usually includes enhancing accessibility of the public transport, removing duplicate and launching new routes, optimizing the schedule and fare policy of urban passenger transport, and introducing bus lanes for public transport.

Optimization of public transport

Any concessionaire wants to assess the risks of participating in such projects. The use of transport modeling methods allows calculating hundreds of scenarios for various forecasting horizons, considering economic and transport development options, tolling systems and methods, fares, and modes of transport.

Infrastructure projects in the form of public-private partnerships

Simulation transport models enable proposal development for modification in traffic management for both vehicles and pedestrians, including changes and optimization of traffic light control modes to achieve better performance and road safety.
