Abstract: Abstract We present a new cellular automaton model of vehicular traffic in cities by combining ideas borrowed from the Biham-Middleton-Levine (BML) model of city traffic and the Nagel-Schreckenberg (NaSch) model of highway traffic. The model exhibits a dynamical phase transition to a completely jammed phase a critical density which depends on the time periods of the synchronized signals.
