Time resoluted information about traffic states in road networks is an important assumption for efficient dynamic traffic management. We developed a concept for online-simulations of urban road networks: Real-time traffic data stemming from induction loops serve as input for microscopic simulations. By running the simulation for the respective time interval traffic conditions at those regions, which are not covered by measurements, are estimated. We investigated the quality of the reproduced traffic states with regard to vehicle densities and link travel times. As an example for dynamic traffic management we studied different strategies for dynamic individual en-route guidance systems with regard to their efficiencies. For all investigations the real road network of Duisburg served as study area.
