The Aimsun team will be showcasing Aimsun Live, the decision support system for real-time traffic management that’s at the heart of the Land Transport Authority of Singapore (LTA) technology trial for a real-time traffic simulation and predictive system.

Recently completed, the 12-month trial evaluated how Aimsun Live’s traffic simulation-based solutions and prediction capabilities can assist LTA in managing Singapore’s traffic conditions faster and more effectively.

The integrated system will support decision-making related to current and future traffic challenges by predicting near-future traffic conditions and then simulating the impact of different traffic response plans to recommend the best plan for implementation.

The system uses traffic data to automatically adjust the traffic demands to accurately simulate the ongoing recorded demand situation and support historical event evaluation as well as study the impact of future modes of transportation.

This is also the first system to link Aimsun Live to SCATSIM in Singapore to emulate the actual adaptive traffic signal control of the SCATS system; this link will provide a more accurate representation of the real-time traffic signal operations.

Looking ahead to future transport options, this trial has incorporated connected and autonomous vehicles in a mixed-behaviour environment and demonstrates the future possibilities of driverless vehicles in the Singapore network.
