APPLICATION OF CELLULAR AUTOMATA FOR ROAD TRAFFIC MODELLING IN VARYING WEATHER CONDITIONS

Abstract

The research presented in many papers suggests that weather conditions have major influence on drivers’ behaviour; leading to parameters change of vehicles streams in road network. Therefore, there is a need to forecast the influence of the weather conditions on traffic control procedures. To make it possible the weather sensitive traffic model has to be proposed. Nagel Schreckenberg (NaSch) model were used as a base for a proposed model. The model were enhanced by three equations to simulate traffic signal control and to adjust the maximum speed representing various weather conditions. Results of performed simulations show changes in number of stops and stop delays at the intersection approach in various weather conditions.
