In this thesis, we study three distinct, but related, topics in the field of traffic simulation. Specifically, we study calibration of traffic models via Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC); the form of link travel time distributions, particularly in the presence of traffic lights; and the form of dwell time distributions for on-road public transport, in particular, for trams.
