Abstract
This article aims at presenting the results of a simulation study of the traffic intersection in the village of Dobrá near Frýdek-Místek. The article deals with creation of a model of the particular intersection, from object and system definition to model implementation and its validation with a real system. After the model is validated, several experiments are presented on the model with the aim to examine the influence of a number of interventions on the model, such as average speed of vehicles, average number of stops, and average travel time. A simulation tool for the experimental study was the CityTrafficSimulator, which is based on a so-called car-following model.
