This paper examines the effects of two traffic management measures, speed limit reduction and coordinated traffic lights, in a case study area in Antwerp, Belgium. For this purpose, an integrated model that combines the microscopic traffic simulation model Paramics with the CO 2 and NO x emission model VERSIT+ is constructed and validated. On the one hand, reductions in CO 2 and NO x emissions in the order of 25 % were found if speed limits are lowered from 50 to 30 km/h in the residential part of the case study area. On the other hand, reductions in the order of 10 % can be expected from the implementation of a green wave signal coordination scheme along an urban arterial road.
