摘要：AbstractA recent attempt to enhance traveler information services and alleviate congestion is by the use of graphical route information panel (GRIP). This paper proposes a travel simulator for collecting behavioral data on driver response to GRIP. The traffic network conditions and GRIP information are driven by an extended version of the validated high-order continuum model METANET, thus enhancing the realism of the hypothetical travel scenario provided by the simulator. The methodology for simulator design is presented. A prototype simulator was developed.
