Abstract
Over the past year we have been collating as much traffic data (volume) as possible and attaching it to the OS Rami section that data point in nearest to.
Created in 2022, The Estimated Traffic Volumes dataset is created using a wide range of traffic data ranging from continous sites, DfT data, Ad hoc data and COMET model estimates. The data sources are prioritesed using confidence levels. If a road has multiple sources of data the highest confidence value is used. The data is then joined to the Highway Network and placed into a volume range bracket. These brackets are chosen to assist transport planners and have a focus on cyclability levels.
The Estimated Traffic Volumes Index is to be used as a guide only! it is not a substitute for actual surveyed data and should not be the sole basis for making decisions on the highway. We don't have data on every section of road in the county so there has been a process of infilling to plug the gaps and give a representative traffic volumne network.
