The standard economic model for analyzing tarffic congestion, due to A.A. Walters, incorporates a relationship between speed and traffic flow. Empirical measurements indicate a region, known as hypercongestion, in which speed increase with flow. We argue that this relationship is unsuitable as a...

We present a simulation model designed to determine the impact on congestion of policies for dealing with non-recurrent congestion (i.e. travel time uncertainty).
