Quantifying and Visualizing City Truck Route Network Efficiency Using a Virtual Test Bed
The research team proposes to develop a citywide model of truck network flows, one that relates changes to truck routes to changes in truck tours or to time-of-day congestion pricing policies, for example, by extending MATSim-NYC for New York City Department of Transportation (NYCDOT). This will be a 1-year project working closely with the NYCDOT staff led by Diniece Mendes.
