abstract = {Traffic flow and pedestrian dynamics are inherently
interconnected in urban environments, particularly at
intersections, intermodal hubs, and railway stations. The
increasing complexity of these environ-ments necessitates
advanced simulation tools to accurately model interactions
between vehicular traffic and pedestrian dynamics.
Traditional traffic flow simulators often consider
pedestrian behavior in a simplified way, neglecting any
interaction in crowds itself or between pedestrians and
vehicles. This leads to an inadequate representation of
reality, especially in scenarios with crowded spaces that
in-volve complex pedestrian dynamics. At crosswalks, for
example, varying speeds and intermediate waypoints of
pedestrians lead to different interactions in the crowd and
thus to different levels of de-lay for vehicles, affecting
the overall flow of traffic. Pedestrian dynamics are also
highly relevant when boarding and alighting trains.By
incorporating the Juelich Pedestrian Simulator into the SUMO
traffic flow simulation, this re-search aims to improve
multimodal simulations where the dynamics in crowds and
their interaction with traffic are of great importance for
the overall assessment. This enables the evaluation of
interact-ing traffic phenomena or traffic control strategies
under varying conditions. Coupling the simulators also
provides a basis for model extensions at the agent-based
level, so that the interaction of vehicles and pedestrians
can be enhanced in the future. We demonstrate the coupling
of both simulators, the required data and configuration
possibilities to achieve a more accurate and holistic
representation of multimodal traffic scenarios. Results
highlight the potential of integrated simulation tools for
designing smarter urban mobility systems that balance the
needs of both vehicular and pedestrian traffic in complex,
dynamic environments.},
