SYNCHRO from TRAFFICWARE SYNCHRO - Planning tool Network modelling - Links and junctions, signals, lanes - Traffic flows - Signal optimisation - Traffic analyses 3D Viewer – New in Synchro version SIMTRAFFIC – - Animation tool (NOT simulation) - Traffic animation – shows the bottlenecs - Fast or slow or stopped animation SYNCHRO & SIMTRAFFIC

Roundabouts available in SYNCHRO 6 Usage of SYNCHRO Suitable objects Coordinated junctions ( fixed cycle, pretimed and fixed control) Independent junction (actuated contril) Yield sign Stop sign Traffic networks (routing available ?) Not suitable objects (yet) Junction without yielding Roundabouts - available but not as primary objects… Weaving etc motorway operations Very complex junctions Roundabouts available in SYNCHRO 6 SYNCHRO & SIMTRAFFIC

How to make a synchro model Draw network with a mouse link distances Specify junction geometry Lanes and distances of extra lanes Visual inspection of the model Be sure that the model geometry is OK Enter traffic flows all directions, thru, left and righ movements Specify signal control mainly: how to control left turning ftraffic Make signal timings optimise or use the timimig used earlier Visual inspection of the animation Analyse the model, links, junctions report on delays, stops, fuel consumption All this needs only lesser than an hour SYNCHRO & SIMTRAFFIC
