The dynamics of development of transport systems in cities makes it harder to control the proper traffic management. It happens that decisions on the reorganization of the traffic and utilization of automated control are made on the basis of insufficient principles. Due to that, the costs of the technical implementations are spent without a simultaneous traffic improvement. For this reason, it is necessary to use tools allowing an efficient analysis of the current and future situation of the road. Utilization of a computer simulation seems to be most effective. The paper is focused on an example of computer simulation analyses of the two integrated cross roads in Szczecin. Based on the simulation model, the assessments of the planned implementation solutions were realized. It includes the analysis of the appropriateness of traffic lights utilization for the analyzed road sections.
