TRAFFIC VOLUMES

Traffic volumes are a measure of how many vehicles use a particular roadway. This measure is usually presented in the form of either average daily traffic (ADT) or average weekday traffic (AWDT), and it complements the roadway performance measures discussed earlier. Traffic volumes are an indication of how many users of the roadway system are affected by poor performance and how many users would benefit from an improvement.

Traffic counts are collected regularly in our region. MassHighway does the bulk of this data collection, through three methods and programs: permanent, continuous-counting stations; a three-year coverage and classification count program; and special counts for specific studies or needs.
