TRAFFIX™ can write out HCS 3.1c compatible signalized intersection files. During this operation, TRAFFIX™ creates a separate HCS file for each intersection selected for analysis. Volumes, lane configurations, and saturation flows defined in a TRAFFIX.TFX dataset are imported directly into the appropriate location in each HCS readable file. Because TRAFFIX™ and HCS interpret the HCM manual methodology in different ways, signal timing schemes may vary. This capability allows TRAFFIX™ users a more efficient means of analyzing complex intersections. Users preferring the HCS software can use TRAFFIX™ as a means of rapidly entering geometric and volume data as well as a generating and loading project generated traffic trips into an existing network.
