A computer simulation scenario analysis approach as a decision support tool for transportation systems planning
Papageorgiou, George; Damianou, Pantelis A.; Pitsillides, Andreas; Aphamis, Thrasos; Ioannou, Petros A. (2007)As the level of traffic congestion rises and the complexity of traffic networks increases, the development of effective transportation strategies becomes the most challenging task for every transport authority. Meanwhile, ...

Development and evaluation of bus priority scenarios via microscopic simulation models
Papageorgiou, George; Ioannou, Petros A.; Pitsillides, Andreas; Aphamis, Thrasos; Maimaris, A. (2009)The number of private vehicles increased dramatically during the last two decades in the island of Cyprus. This phenomenon had a negative effect on the bus transport mode which over the years its use has been considerably ...

Modelling and simulation of transportation systems: A scenario planning approach
Papageorgiou, George; Damianou, Pantelis A.; Pitsillides, Andreas; Aphamis, Thrasos; Charalambous, Demetris; Ioannou, Petros A. (2009)It is increasingly realized that building more roads does not solve the traffic congestion problem but actually makes it worse. Instead of adding capacity to our roads there should be an effort to find ways in order to ...

Planning for effective bus rapid transit systems: A scenario simulation modelling based approach
Papageorgiou, George; Maimaris, A.; Ioannou, Petros A.; Aphamis, Thrasos (2012)This paper proposes an approach to planing for Bus Rapid Transit Systems via traffic simulation modelling. The approach concentrates on developing a valid traffic network model and consequently evaluating a number of BRT ...
