DESTINY MICRO MODEL Short Video Clip
DESTINY MICRO MODEL • Paramics is being used as a planning tool for design of Destiny due in part from the success of the Paramics model for Miami, Florida (140 signalized intersections). • Construction of the Destiny model is in the very preliminary stages, and is evolving on nearly a daily basis. Future goals include: • Determining optimum location of signalized intersections. 100+ signals anticipated. • Investigate all transportation systems that conserve energy, have little environmental impacts, and provide congestion relief for potential implementation into the project.
