Abstract:

One objective of statewide traffic monitoring

programs is to accurately estimate the Annual

Average Daily Traffic (AADT) for many roadway

segments within the state. The majority of the

departments of transportation (DOT) in the United

States implement a traditional method developed by

Drusch in 1966. According to this method, traffic

volumes are collected continuously from automatic

traffic recorders (ATRs) and supplemented with

shorter duration 24, 48 or 72-hour coverage counts

in areas where there are limited or no available

ATRs. Once the short-term counts are recorded,

adjustment factors including daily, weekly, monthly

or seasonally are then used in concert with the

short-term counts to estimate AADT. One

criticism of this approach is the number of steps

required which increase the overall error within the

final AADT estimate.
