Abstract

Abstract: Recently many traffic problems are faced by more and more cities. Since traditional method can no longer solve the above problems, and Transportation Demand Management (TDM) solutions are in desperate need. Also, as a successful application of Intelligent Traffic System (ITS), traffic simulation software has become an efficient way to carry out assessment for TDM. The implementation of congestion charge policy in Shenzhen was studied as a demonstration of TDM in China. Then the microscopic traffic simulation software, FLOWSIM, was introduced to simulate the traffic situation to do assessment of congestion charge. Based on the results, advices were given and further research plans were discussed.

Key words: traffic simulation, FLOWSIM, traffic management and assessment, congestion charge
