Based on the open-source Covasim platform, we developed NeoCovasim, a software package that allows parallel simulations of multiple localities connected by a transport network. Computational experiments showed a non-linear relationship between passenger traffic intensity and epidemiological dynamics. GPU acceleration significantly speed up the modelling process for large cities. Sensitivity analysis revealed that household size, class size, and workforce size are important parameters influencing model behavior.
