This study aims to understand the phase transitions, between congested and free-flow states, by estimating the congestion boundary. Since the congestion transition process occurs rapidly, the probability density distributions of traffic flow parameters, i.e. speed and density, show bimodal shapes. The congestion boundary is defined as the threshold that decomposes the bimodal distribution. The dedicated short-range communication data and toll collection system data were used to estimate congestion boundaries on the highway section from Seoul tollgate to Shingal junction. The results show that the congestion boundaries for speed, density, and flow rate were estimated to be 66.9 km/h, 22.8 veh/km, and 341.3 veh/5 min, respectively. With the flow rate at the congestion boundary, the capacity was estimated to be between 71.4% and 82.7% of traditional capacities. The congestion boundary approach provides critical thresholds for each dynamic transition phase on highways, offering crucial insights for effective congestion management.
