Abstract :
The main purpose of this article is to evaluate the impact of newly emerging big leisure and shopping centers with spacious parking in the cities to the traffic flows. The experiment was performed for this purpose. The results of this experiment were used for forecasting the traffic flows. After performing the traffic flow forecasting, the results were used in the development of the crossroad model. By applying the developed crossroad model we could perform the modelling and identify the impact of the released different traffic flows from parking to the transport flows in crossroads.
