• Abstract:
  A new microscopic traffic simulation package, called the TEXAS Model, which can be used as a tool by transportation engineers to evaluate traffic performance at isolated intersections operating under various types of intersection control has been developed. The package consists of a geometry processor, a driver-vehicle processor, and a traffic simulation processor. Input to the TEXAS Model has been designed to be user oriented and minimal while output is concise and functional. Documentation has been developed for both users and programmers.
