Traffic Forecasting & Analysis
Thousands of traffic counts are collected on Minnesota roadways each year. This information is used to produce volume, classification, speed and weight data as well as traffic forecasts, reports, maps and analysis.
Traffic data products are used in safety evaluation, pavement design, funding decisions, forecasting, modeling, and much more.
The most comprehensive way to view our traffic data (including AADT/HCAADT) is by using the Traffic Mapping Application.
Volume - count of motorized vehicles that travel past a certain location during a specific period of time
Classification - categorization of traffic by 13 vehicle types (motorcycles, single unit trucks, semis with single or twin trailers, etc.)
Weight - measurement of vehicle axle weight
Forecasts - estimation of future traffic volumes and loads on a specific roadway segment
