Transport modelling
3. Local network models
There are a number of local network models that have been developed to represent specific local network conditions within the towns of Buckinghamshire (Aylesbury, Buckingham and High Wycombe). These models have been built utilising VISUM software and which are all based on recent traffic data and are considered to be representative of contemporary traffic conditions.
The models are intended to be used for assessing the traffic impact of highway schemes and new land-use development.
