To learn how European countries monitor traffic, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) sponsor a scanning tour of the Netherlands, Switzerland, Germany, France and the United Kingdom in June 1996. The team focused on types of data collected, data collection methods, organizational arrangements for data collection, equipment and data validation efforts. The executive summary of this report includes the findings of the investigation, first by highlighting innovative ideas that warrant follow-up or special consideration, then by listing the other significant findings. The main body of the report is divided by country and by primary subject area. Innovative ideas are offered in the following areas: equipment reliability; use of traffic control systems and intelligent transportation systems (ITS) for data collection; ensuring cooperation in data collection; purchase of data collection services; truck data collection; standardization; weigh-in-motion (WIM) calibration; data validation; and performance information.
