Abstract： Nonlinear weak solution theory is applied to determine the parameters of a wide cluster in an ``anisotropic'' higher-order traffic flow model. These parameters are the maximal and minimal densities and the travelling wave speed in the solution structure. Numerical experiments show that the convergent simulation results are in good agreement with those obtained from the analytical expressions.
