5271 PTV has just launched a completely new version of its market leading microsimulator, Vissim v6.  "The program has been completely rewritten to modernise and streamline its foundation architecture," said PTV developer Dr Axel Lenhardt, "…making it faster and more efficient.”

"Users will also be able to tailor the interface to suit their preferences for different work stages. They will be able to save those profiles for reuse or to pass to colleagues, perhaps as a standard in a particular office."
