Microscopic traffic simulation is commonly utilized in transportation engineering fields, including transportation system design, traffic operations, and management alternative evaluation. Hence, simulation-based investigations of toll-based traffic operations is of practical importance for traffic engineers to quantify toll impacts, optimize tolling strategies, and identify potential problems prior to implementation. Verkehr In Stdten - SIMulationsmodell (VISSIM) is one of the most powerful microscopic simulation tools developed to model urban traffic operations. This software can simulate and analyze traffic operations under a broad range of scenarios. Many simulation studies have been conducted using VISSIM. Gomes et al. [61] developed and calibrated a VISSIM model for simulating a congested freeway operation. Lelewski et al. [130] built up a VISSIM simulation model to analyze express toll plaza operations. Zhang et al. [286] conducted simulation-based investigations of HOT lane operations on Washington SR-167. Many studies [199,213] indicate that the output data from a simulation run are inherently correlated.

Traffic simulation is a cost-efficient means of investigating vehicles movements in a traffic system. Traffic simulation tools include sub-models for describing the vehicle/driver behaviour, as well as their interaction with each other and with the infrastructure. Here brief introductions to traffic simulation classes, incorporated behavioural sub-models in traffic simulation, and the chosen traffic simulation tool for this study, are provided.

Traffic simulation systems are an important tool to aid in the planning, design and management of road infrastructure. Decades of increasing urbanisation and levels of car ownership have strained the transportation networks within many cities [34]. These systems help to explore the complexities of the networks being simulated and the impact of different variables on the network. As such research into traffic simulation systems has been ongoing for many years.

Microscopic traffic simulation is used to simulate traffic scenarios in a computer-based environment (Barceló et al., 2005). There are different traffic simulation software, for example, VISSIM, PARAMICS, CORSIM, SUMO, etc. In this study, SUMO which is open-source software was used to develop the simulation model. SUMO has a unique graphical interface to visualize scenarios that can handle large networks (Krajzewicz, 2010).
An exploration of data-driven microscopic simulation for traffic system and case study of freeway

As an experimental substitute for actual traffic networks, the reliability of traffic simulation systems depends on accuracy of various driving behaviour models. There are two ways to improve system performance: refining models and applying multi-dimensional evaluation.
