Abstract

Efficiency monitoring of traffic control measures is a complex problem which involves the choice of appropriate indicators and data collection methods. Usually, analysis of traffic conditions is based upon measurements of vehicle flows and travel-time gathered by means of surveys. This article introduces the idea of a comprehensive network indicator (vehicle-kilometers and average speed of users in the network). It also describes direct evaluation methods which use data available on flows and occupancy provided by centralized control systems or traffic operating systems of urban expressways.
