2. Right click on the location for the
routing decision point (red bar) on
the selected link.
The Create routing decision window
appears.
Define basic routing decision
properties (cf. section 6.4.4.4) and
confirm with OK.
3. Select the link/connector for the
route destination.
4. According to route type:
- Static Routes, Partial Routes,
Closures:
Right-click on the location for the
route destination point (green).
If there is a valid connection between the red bar and the click position
the link sequence is shown as yellow band from the routing
decision to any destination point defined for that routing decision.
After definition of all destinations per routing decision, right-click
outside of the link to call the Routes window.
Define the route properties (cf. below) and confirm with OK.
If there is no consecutive sequence of links and connectors possible,
VISSIM cannot suggest a route and thus no yellow band appears.
The Routes window will not contain route data for this routing
decision. In that case, either the destination link or destination
location must be changed or any missing connectors be created.
- Parking Lot: Select parking lot(s) by left-click; selected parking lots
are highlighted in blue.
- Dynamic: cf. section 12.7.5
- Managed Lanes: As for static routes, right-click to define the location
for the route destination point (green). The first route being generated
for a routing decision of the Managed type is always a route of the
Toll type which is highlighted green. To generate the second route,
mark – for the same route start point – the second route destination
point next to the first one on the same link. The second route which is
created for a routing decision of the Managed lanes route type is
always a route of the General purpose route type and is indicated by
yellow color. A routing decision of the Managed lanes type has just
two routes to which – similar to partial routes – the same destination
point is allocated automatically
