1 Applicability of Paths Derived in Regional Planning Models to Traffic Micro-Simulation Paul Ricotta, P.E., Caliper Corporation Jon Fricker, PhD, Purdue University Kent Anderson, CAMPO (Columbus, IN) Daniel Morgan, Caliper Corporation

2 Case & Approach 1.Generate simulation network from planning network 2.Add network detail, signals, and signal timings 3.Run planning model 4.Run 2-hour AM simulation (with trip table from step 3) 5.Generate, map, and tabulate congestion MOEs from planning model (step 3) 6.Generate, map, and tabulate congestion MOEs from simulation model (step 4) 7.Compare and contrast (between steps 5 & 6)

3 Case Overview – Geographic Scale 1 county (Bartholomew) and parts of two others (Johnson & Shelby) 8800 links, 6700 nodes, 85 TAZs 3,000 lane-miles 108 signalized intersections 22 miles E-W x 28 miles N-S Freeways, arterials, local streets, commercial, residential

4 Special Considerations – Centroid Connectors

5 Special Considerations – Paths (1)

6 Special Considerations – Paths (2)
