    Traffic Volume Study
    16
    Traffic volume is defined as the number of vehicles crossing a
    section of road per unit time at any selected period.

    Information gathered…..
     Hourly, daily, yearly and seasonal traffic volume variations

     Volume and direction of traffic

     Variation of vehicle flows on different parts of a road


    system
     Proportion of two wheelers, cars, heavy vehicles, slow
    vehicles etc. (Traffic Composition)

    CE697 Urban Transport System Planning


     Average Annual Flow
    17
     Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT)
    Total yearly volume divided by number of days in a
    year (365)
     Average Daily Traffic (ADT)
    Total volume during certain number of days divided
    by number of days
     Hourly Volume (HV)

    CE697 Urban Transport System Planning


    Uses of traffic volume studies

    18  Annual Total Traffic Volume


     Measuring & establishing trends in traffic volume
     Annual travel in vehicle – km used for economic analysis

     Computation of accident rates

     Estimation of highway user revenues

    CE697 Urban Transport System Planning


    19
     AADT or ADT Volumes
     Highway planning activities: Development of express
    ways ,Urban free ways, Bye – passes etc.
     Prioritisation of highway improvement programmes

     Measuring present demand for service

     Evaluating the present traffic flow with respect to


    existing highway system

     Peak Hourly Volumes

     Geometric design with respect to number and width of lanes,
    intersection design etc.
     Determination of deficiency in capacity
     Justifying use of control devices such as signals, rotary, markings
    etc.
     Developing operational programmes such as one way street,
    designation of streets etc.
     Justifying other regulatory measures like parking, turning,
    stopping etc.
     Highway classification
     Justifying enforcement and its planning
