West Bromwich Integrated Transport Modelling
Colin Buchanan has developed an integrated modelling framework for Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council to test numerous highway designs, demand management measures and to produce a business case submission for West Bromwich.
The project involved the development of an integrated modelling suite that used VISUM for strategic modelling, VISSIM for micro-simulation and economic appraisal using TUBA. The VISUM model interacts with the VISSIM model, which also included a detailed pedestrian network.
