1. Traffic count

   A traffic count is a count of vehicular or pedestrian traffic, which is conducted along a particular road, path, or intersection. A traffic count is commonly undertaken either automatically (with the installation of a temporary or permanent electronic traffic recording device), or manually by observers who visually count and record traffic on a hand-held electronic device or tally sheet. Traffic counts can be used by local councils to identify which routes are used most, and to either improve that road or provide an alternative if there is an excessive amount of traffic. Also, some geography fieldwork involves a traffic count. Traffic counts provide the source data used to calculate the Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT), which is the common indicator used to represent traffic volume. Traffic counts are useful for comparing two or more roads, and can also be used alongside other methods to find out where the central business district (CBD) of a settlement is located. Traffic counts that include speeds are used in speed limit enforcement efforts, highlighting peak speeding periods to optimise speed camera use and educational efforts.

1. traffic count

   Traffic count refers to the measurement and recording of the number of vehicles or pedestrians passing through a specific location, typically a road, street, or intersection, within a given time period. It is commonly carried out to gather data and assess the traffic volume and patterns in order to make informed decisions related to transportation planning, road design, traffic management, and infrastructure development. Traffic counts may involve manual observation by trained personnel, the use of automated traffic counters, or a combination of both methods. The collected information is often used to analyze traffic flow, monitor changes over time, and make evidence-based decisions to improve transportation systems and ensure efficient and safe movement of people and vehicles.
