Preparing the daily mobility of 2040, this is the objective of SYSTRA which has supported the development of a transport strategy for the city of Cork in Ireland by using its transport modelling capabity and analysis techniques including the use of micro-simulation models to visually demonstrate aspects of the strategy. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Cork Metropolitan Area Transport Strategy (CMATS) represents a coordinated land use and transport strategy for Ireland’s second largest city. It sets out a framework for the planning and delivery of transport infrastructure and services to support the Cork Metropolitan Area’s development in the period up to 2040. Today, the city depends on the car as its main form of transport and suffers from high levels of congestion during peak traffic period. In order to revitalise the city centre and improve the quality of life of its inhabitants, CMATS aims to provide the city with a high quality public transport system that is fully integrated in its urban fabric.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Solutions were developed with key stakeholders, with numerous land use and transport strategy options tested. SYSTRA used its microsimulation models VISSIM and VISWALK, enabling the implementation of multimodal projects in the urban space to be visualised in 3D to help the public to gain a greater understanding of the transport strategy proposals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
