Taking BRT line in Dalian as study object, this paper evaluates the changes of traffic flow and its environmental load corresponding to several schemes of BRT lanes with micro traffic simulator. First, the capacity of BRT lane and the being removed bus routes and bus vehicles are calculated. Second, spatial model of the corresponding area is established in the Simulating Platform, and several BRT lane schemes are built in the model, then the attributes of the corresponding traffic flows are analyzed. Third, environmental load model is used to calculate the corresponding traffic environmental loads.
