The need for large quantities of timely and comprehensive data on traffic and travel conditions on urban freeways is increasing. Data are needed for planning, design, operations and maintenance activities. Automatic systems for the collection, recording and processing the data are required. Permanent and portable systems of detectors and data collection recorders must be designed and installed on freeways now operating at or near capacity. Large numbers of loop detectors must be installed on the urban freeways to provide data for traffic information, traffic control and traffic management systems.
