Traffic Simulation on Ogbomoso Road Using Gravity Model

The book "Traffic Simulation on Ogbomoso Road Using Gravity Model" provides a comprehensive analysis of traffic simulation on the roads of Ogbomoso using the gravity model. It examines the relationship between land use and traffic patterns in the region by analyzing trip destinations and their impact on traffic demand over a ten-year period (2006-2016). The author, Olaniyan Olatunji Sunday, focuses on trip generation to model traffic demand rather than concentrating on modal distribution or traffic transfer. The study divides the road network of Ogbomoso into four main zones, each of which must generate more than 15% of the total trips. By conducting traffic counts in these zones, the current traffic situation is captured, and the results are used to analyze trip production and attraction in relation to socioeconomic factors and land use patterns.
