Abstract:This study aims to develop a method for estimating the traffic volume at locations and time periods where past data are unavailable. To achieve this, we constructed a model based on seven years of traffic volume observations on 22 main roads in Tokyo. The estimation method comprises two components: a traffic volume fluctuation pattern model that explains pre-clustered patterns and an annual average daily traffic model. Through our analysis, we made three key observations. First, the distance to the city center… Show more
