Object-Oriented Simulation Model for Tandem Tollbooth Operations using Pro-Model

This paper presents a new object-oriented simulation model to describe tandem tollbooth system in order to evaluate the operational performance of toll plaza facilities. This microscopic traffic simulation model is used to enhance planning, design, operations, and management of traffic operation at toll plazas. Computational result shows that lower reaction time ratio increases the throughput capacity of tandem tollbooth.This paper would not have been possible unless there is no support from IOE department at the University of Michigan.
