Abstract:

Accurate traffic volume and vehicle classification data are essential for VDOT’s planning, design, operations, and federal reporting activities. To ensure consistent evaluation of emerging traffic count devices, VDOT requires a standardized and statistically defensible acceptance procedure. This procedure provides a uniform method for assessing products needing VDOT approval and ensures that only devices meeting a defined accuracy standard are integrated into the traffic monitoring program.
