Defining partial vehicle routes
To define a partial vehicle route, insert a routing decision on a link and a destination section on a destination link. The partial vehicle routing decision or the destination section may also lie on a connector.
You can assign the interval limits via the time intervals (Defining time intervals for a network object type), (Calling time intervals from an attributes list). If a distribution on a percentage basis of the traffic volume to the routes of a routing decision varies temporally, you must define multiple time intervals which do not overlap each other.

Notes:
|
1. On the network object sidebar, click Vehicle Routes.
The button is highlighted. The variant of the network object type is displayed in parentheses and the button is shown.
2. Click Vehicle Routes again.
A list box opens.
3. Then select Partial route.
|
Tip: Alternatively to the following steps, to insert a routing decision, on the shortcut menu, click Vehicle partial routing decision. |
4. Hold down the Ctrl key and in the Network Editor right-click the desired link or connector on the desired position of the routing decision cross section.
5. Release the keys.
By default, a purple bar is inserted.
6. On the desired link, point the mouse pointer to the desired position of the destination section.
If Vissim does not find a valid link sequence, neither a yellow band nor a turquoise bar are displayed, or the band might be interrupted. Select another destination link or a new position for the destination section or correct the Vissim network, for example if a link is not connected properly with a connector.
If Vissim finds a valid connection via a link sequence, between the start section and the position the mouse pointer is pointing to, the link sequence is displayed as a yellow band by default.
On the edge of the link, which you are pointing to with the mouse pointer, a black arrow is shown in the direction of travel. A turquoise bar shows the possible position of the destination section. Thereby you can select links from the different types of links, which are added in the next step of the destination section.
7. Right-click this position.
The shortcut menu opens.
8. Then select Add vehicle partial route: Define end.
A turquoise bar is added for the destination section by default. The Vehicle partial routing decision list opens if automatic opening of a list after object generation is selected (Right-click behavior and action after creating an object). The attribute and attribute values of this network object type are shown in the list on the left, which consists of two coupled lists.
9. Edit the attributes (Attributes of partial vehicle routing decisions), (Attributes of partial vehicle routes).
