Original Abstract

This paper focusses on traffic modelling, which is very relevant to the field of transport planning. The usability of the AnyLogic simulation software is illustrated in the form of a case study at a selected intersection. It is a universal simulation tool that can be used in many research fields (for example, in transportation, logistics, traffic, pedestrian movement, etc.). Using multimethod simulation modelling enables the creation of a wide range of different models with varying levels of detail. The case study evaluated the current state of the intersection during rush hour using simulation. Subsequently, the intersection modifications were designed and simulated in the form of traffic light installation and reconstruction into a roundabout. The comparison of the results showed that both proposed modifications would contribute to improving the current state, that is, eliminating the congestion and strengthening the traffic flow. The best results were achieved with the roundabout variant. The analysis confirmed the suitability of using AnyLogic software to solve this type of problem.
