This conference talk explores how to better manage traffic disruptions from urban construction projects through early-stage simulation. Learn how a prototype system integrates the Baustellenatlas digital construction coordination tool with SESAM (a cloud-based SUMO simulation service) via REST API to enable automated traffic impact assessments. The presentation covers two Berlin case studies: a small-scale demonstration at Molkenmarkt using randomly generated traffic and a larger calibrated scenario at Tempelhofer Damm using real-world data. Discover the potential benefits of incorporating microscopic traffic simulation into construction planning phases, current challenges in visualizing rerouting effects and modeling long-term detours, and future development plans including public transport integration, adaptive signal control, and automatic scenario calibration with real-time traffic data.
