Overview Text

This dataset contains detailed records of vehicle activity from road traffic surveys conducted across various local areas and cities within a specific region. Each entry includes information about the region, the date of the survey, the type of vehicles observed (e.g., cars, trucks, buses), and the corresponding counts for each vehicle type. The data has been officially verified by the respective local authorities to ensure accuracy and reliability. Designed for use in transportation planning and analysis, the dataset supports visualization as tables or graphs, enabling stakeholders such as regional development banks, policymakers, and urban planners to assess traffic patterns, evaluate infrastructure performance, and identify trends. This information is particularly useful for benchmarking vehicle activity, estimating road capacity needs, and formulating sustainable transport policies.
