In this project, I designed and implemented a virtual urban traffic network simulator. The simulator serves as a testbed for human-subject experiments to determine driver behavior in road networks and also as a platform for testing route-planning algorithms. The simulator was implemented using the C4 game engine and OpenGL. The simulator is capable of producing both 3- and 2-dimensional visualizations of a traffic network. In this thesis, I describe the key components of the simulator, the necessary inputs, and the expected outputs. I verify operation of the simulator through observation of the actual system outputs.
