Traffic data collection

16th Feb, 2014

Gengguo and I planed to collect traffic data yesterday. However, it shucked by a heavy rain. And today, we walking alone the Brownlow hill street and recorded data for three cross-street.



The target simulation street is Brownlow hill street. We begin with one of the starting point, which is perpendicular with lime street. The information related to traffic light time gap, traffic flow and ratio of bus was recorded. By the way, all the information is recorded on Sunday afternoon and the traffic flow of branch road were also included. Moreover, each set of data is count for twenty minutes, which was not accurate or reliable enough but could achieve on the simulation first. 


In future research, more relevant data will be collected, especially on the weekday rush time. The results and analysis of these data will present as a table and figure in the next blog.
