2 PREFACE This publication contains a Sillllinary of the traffic volumes taken during the Years 1954, 1955 and 1956 in British Columbia. A good coverage of all numbered routes in the Province is presented. The data obtained has been compiled as Average Daily Traffic Volumes for certain periods of the year. Section I contains an explanation of the methods used in obtaining data and includes tables of hourly variation of 24-hour traffic, of daily variation of traffic during the week, and of monthly variation of traffic for the year. In addition, a numerical example of the conversion of short counts to average long time counts is included. Section II contains a tabulation of vehicular traffic volumes taken on Main Highways and feeder roads to those Highways throughout the Province. The tabulation is by numbered routes. Each count is identified by a station number, the first part of which indicates the Electoral District in which the count was obtained, and the second part identifies it from other stations in the district. Volumes listed are the Average Daily Traffic at the described location for the period indicated. The terminology used throughout the text is defined as follows:- A.T.R.: ftautomatic Traffic Rocorder" is the term applied to the automatic recording counters used during the survey. These counters record every 15 minutes and total on the hour Junior Counter: Is the term applied to the non-recording or cumulative type of counter used during the survey. These counters have no timing devices. L.C. S.C.S. "Long Counts" are traffic counts taken at strategically located control stations for a minimum period of 14 days. The location of these control stations is such that the count could be assumed to have a fluctuation pattern common to all roads in the area. Certain Ferry traflic records were used where adoptable for this purpose in addition to counts taken with A.T.R. machines. "Sub Control Stations" are used as Long Counts but are for a minimum of seven days. These are expanded by the short count method by use of a Long Count Station to determine their Average Daily Traffic. s.c. "Short Countsl1 are traffic counts taken with A.T.R. machines or -- cumulative counters for a period of not less than 24 hours. A.D.T. A.D.H.T. A.W.T. ~-3f- "Average Daily Traffic", includes Saturdays and Sundays. "Average Daily Weekend Traffic", Saturdays and Sundays only. UAverage Weekday Traffic", Monday to Friday inclusive. Indicates a station on a Feeder Road adjacent to the 11ain Route. Indicates ne count obtained due to r~chine cause. failure or some other Indicates no count scheduled. contd

3 Conltd PREFACE Vehicular Volumes. Include all motorized vehicles with the exception of motorcycles. Every two axles passing over a counter is recorded as one vehicle. No reduction was made to allow for the overcount made by vehicles with more than two axles. Note:- It must be emphasized that these counts should not be interpreted too freely as some counts may be too heavy or too light due to vagaries of mechanical and electrical tabulating equipment and vandalism to the detectors. Another factor giving results which could be misleading, is the exact location at which the count was taken. It was sometimes impossible to avoid obtaining a count which was greatly influenced by a purely local condition. However, inaccuracies have been eliminated as far as possible. The reader is urged to get in touch with the Traffic Engineer should help be needed in interpreting or comparing counts.

7 SEC T ION I METHODS AI\;TJ PROCEDURE OF COI"lPILING DATA The A.D.T. volumes listed in Section II have been computed by means of the short count method. The short count method is based on the theory that the percentage of traffic in any given period of the day is a constant value at all points along the same route or for routes having the same characteristics in the same or similar districts. This theory is sometimes extended to include all fluctuations, including seasonal, daily and hourly variation. In order to expand a short count by means of the short count method the period during which the shqrt count was taken must be compared t. a count taken during the same period at a long COlmt control station. Although the 24 hour volume may vary widely at different locations the hourly traffic distribution, as shown by the percentage of total daily traffic occurring in any hour, for the highways in a given area, is very nearly the same provided the highways have the same characteristics. Hourly traffic distributions by percent are given in the following table for three different areas in B.C.

8 CONVERSION OF SHORT COlJNTS TO AVERAGE DAILY TRt"LFFIC Conversion of short time counts te average daily traffic volumes may be carried out as follows: Station A, Where:- Average Daily Traffic Station A, short time count multiplied by Average Daily' Traffic at Control Station Short Time Count at Control Station Station A, Short Time count Is the kno~~ Short Count at the location in question covering specific period. Station A, Average Daily Traffic Short Time count at Control Station Is the unknown Average Daily 'rraffic at stat';.on in question. Is the known short time count covering same period of time as Station A. Average Daily Traffic at Cootr~l Station Is the known Average Daily Traffic at Control Station for the same monthly period during vvhich Sh.rt Time Count was taken. The reliability of results of the above method depends upon the location of the Control Station in relation to short count stations and the correlation of defined traffic patterns. l'j1j1'ieri CAL EXiU1PLE: Expansion of Short Count (Station 5-11) on Route No. 1 Trans Canada Highway between Abbotsford and Clearbrook.
