SYSTRA is delighted to unveil 
**[Paramics Discovery 26](https://www.systra.com/digital/solutions/transport-planning/paramics/)**
. The latest version of the well-known Paramics transport planning software tool
has improved functionality to simulate behaviour across more modes of transport
to better reflect how we use our road infrastructure.

Paramics has been reproducing real world traffic conditions by simulating travel
behaviour on a user-defined road network for motorised transport modes since
1996. The latest version Paramics Discovery 26 includes active travel modes for
the first time and has been designed to enable transport professionals to
design, evaluate and present transport and mobility solutions.

**Paramics Discovery 26** can be used to test a wide variety of transport
planning interventions simply and quickly, including assessing the impact of
increased traffic on a road network, new junctions and infrastructure, changes
to traffic signal control, public transport operations, roadworks and event
planning.

The intuitive software also enables transport planners to assess both economic
and environmental impact from their proposed interventions including cycling and
walking to public transport and private motorised modes

> We are incredibly excited to reveal Paramics Discovery 26. We listened to our
> clients, colleagues and authorities around the globe who expressed a strong
> interest for sustainable transport modes to help their detailed transport
> planning and appraisal programmes. With Paramics Discovery 26 we have equipped
> authorities with an intelligent tool to support the transition to NetZero. We
> hope you like it as much as we do.
> Sébastien Dupont, Managing Director Consultancy, SYSTRA Ltd

> Two years in development, and we are absolutely delighted to release Paramics
> Discovery 26. As towns and cities throughout the globe are witnessing a
> massive return on investment by dedicating more road space to active travel
> modes, our improved software will for the first time allow authorities to
> envisage thriving local economies and test how best to reach their carbon
> reduction targets.
> Malcolm Calvert, Digital Director, SYSTRA Ltd
