Abstract

he paper presents the results of analyzes concerning the variation in daily traffic volumes of buses during the year. Based on them, typical groups of seasonal and weekly variation of buses were identified, along with the way in which they were assigned to a particular section of A-class or S-class roads. For the homogeneous traffic groups obtained in this way, representative traffic volume variation profiles were determined enabling direct calculation of volumes from daily measurements into AADT buses, which is a departure from the present approach (profiles determined for all vehicles). Additionally, the most favorable period for conducting measurements at random, that allows for a reliable estimation of AADT (the smallest AADT estimation error and lowest traffic variation), was determined. The results obtained can help to better estimate the traffic volume of buses and thus better design the road infrastructure.
