The modelling results highlighted capacity issues with the Local Plan and Transport Strategy implemented in 2030. 1.3 The strategic nature of SATURN means that there are limitations when considering the A390 St Austell corridor, particularly the interaction and performance of congested sections of corridors and junctions. Where capacity issues are identified more detailed modelling and assessment is required. 1.4 Due to the complex nature of the highway network under assessment, a micro- simulation model was required in order to assess the different types of junctions within the study area, identify problems within a reasonable degree of accuracy and to produce a controlled and accurate base model to then test the proposed developments and highway proposals, and Transport Strategy against. 1.5 The A390 St Austell corridor micro-simulation model has been developed using PTV VISSIM, version 8.
