The transportation of goods and people is a key element of the economy. With the ever increasing intensity of road traffic, several issues arise that need to be addressed. Policy makers require reliable forecasts of traffic behaviour in order to develop an effective policy. Activity-based models are best suited to make the predictions used for these policies.
