With worsening traffic condition in large and medium-sized cities, it has become one of the most important steps for the urban traffic strategy to solve the traffic problems. Since the urban traffic is a complex system in various factors and huge scale, to establish related mathematical model through computer numerical simulation is a significant solution to the comprehensive problems of complex analysis, decision and planning. At present researches on the problems have been achieved in many foreign countries, but domestic research is not enough, especially in the practical application. The macroscopic traffic flow model and microscopic traffic flow model are described and cellular automaton model, dual channel decision model and car-following model are analyzed in this paper, prediction of the ideal traffic flow and trip distribution is consequently concluded, which deepen the understanding to the traffic flow of various phenomenon intrinsic mechanism and predict most closely to the actual situation of traffic flow, which can make fundamental work for traffic flow simulation and for real-time traffic control[1-3].

Based on the two-dimension cellular automaton traffic flow model (BML model), a mixed traffic flow model for urban traffic considering the transit traffic is established in this paper. Under the don't block the box rules and the opening boundary conditions, the impacts of transit traffic, the central station, traffic lights cycle, the vehicles length on the mixed traffic flow is studied by computer simulation. Some important characters appearing in the new model are also elucidated. It shows that traffic flow is closely related to traffic lights cycle, the geometric structure of transport network and boundary conditions. Under certain traffic light cycle time, the traffic flow has a periodical oscillation change. The comparison to practical measured data shows that our stimulation results are accordant with the changes of real traffic flow, which confirms the accuracy and rationality of our model.
