TRAFLO-M MACROSCOPIC TRAFFIC SIMULATION MODEL USER'S MANUAL. FINAL REPORT

This manual is a guide for users of the TRAFLO-M Integrated Traffic Simulation Model. TRAFLO-M is a hybrid version of TRAFLO. The major improvements include: 1) TRAFLO-M contains the DYNEV Freeway Model rather than FREFLO, 2) DYNEV includes special logic to simulate ramp metering strategies, and 3) A special version of TRAFLO-M simulates networks that include Light Rail Transit Vehicles operating in the median of divided highways.
