The paper presents the INTEGRATION microscopic traffic assignment and simulation framework for modeling eco-routing strategies. Two eco-routing algorithms are developed: one based on vehicle sub-populations (ECO-Subpopulation Feedback Assignment or ECO-SFA) and another based on individual agents (ECO-Agent Feedback Assignment or ECO-AFA). Both approaches initially assign vehicles based on fuel consumption levels for travel at the facility free-flow speed. Subsequently, fuel consumption estimates are refined based on experiences of other vehicles within the same class. The proposed framework is intended to evaluate the network-wide impacts of eco-routing strategies. This stochastic, multi-class, dynamic traffic assignment framework was demonstrated to work for two scenarios. Savings in fuel consumption levels in the range of 15 percent were observed and potential implementation challenges were identified.
