• Abstract:
  Accurate, complete, and timely traffic data is critical to the effective management of Arizona’s highway system. Limitations in current traffic monitoring abilities are an ongoing challenge for the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) and for its customers as well in both urban and rural areas. Many technologies exist for detecting vehicles and determining traffic volume, speed, and lane occupancy. This research project included a state-of-thepractice review, intended to assist ADOT and other Arizona transportation agencies in identifying the most appropriate detection technologies to meet local needs. The scope of this project also required the development of a design for a detector testbed facility, which ADOT proposes to develop in the near future, in the Phoenix area.
