In this paper, a system methodology evaluating model designed for estimating the urban traffic condition trend is raised under the circumstance of specific traffic policy. Additionally, the conceptual understanding of system dynamics and its application in traffic is raised in detail. Furthermore, a specific example is offered to make model verification while indicating the accuracy of the whole system. In conclusion, this research provides a conceptual framework that describes traffic congestion behavior of a transportation socioeconomic system for an urban area over time, and finally offers a useful tool for the policy makers.
