A traffic prediction model that incorporates relevant demographic variables for county roads was developed. Field traffic data were collected from 40 out of 92 counties in Indiana. The selection of a county was based on population, state highway mileage, per capita income, and the presence of interstate highways. Three to four automatic traffic counters were installed in each selected county. Most counters installed on the selected road sections were based on the standard 48-hour traffic counts. Then, the obtained average daily traffic was converted to annual average daily traffic by means of adjustment factors. Multiple regression analysis was conducted to develop the model. There were quantitative and qualitative predictor variables used in the model development. To validate the developed model, additional field traffic data were collected from eight randomly selected counties. The accuracy measures of the validation showed the high accuracy of the model. The statistical analyses also found that the independent variables employed in the model were statistically significant. The number of independent variables included in the model was kept to a minimum.
