Intercity traffic networks support the integrated and synergistic development of city clusters. However, there is a notable gap between outdated traffic construction and growing intercity travel demand. This paper constructs a comprehensive intercity traffic network for the Guanzhong city cluster. By projecting population, GDP, and employment at district level, the intercity travel demand is quantitatively predicted by applying the improved four-stage method. The applicability of intercity traffic network is analyzed, and strategies are proposed to solve the problem of imbalanced supply and demand of intercity traffic. The study indicates that (1) with the economic and social development, the total scale of intercity passenger traffic has grown significantly in the planning year. (2) There is a 66% high level of intercity traffic within the provinces, and intercity travel between provinces mainly originates from border cities. (3) The road network saturation in the core area has increased significantly, leading to increasing “centripetal” transit traffic pressure. A series of parameter calibration methods for intercity traffic models are developed to improving the decision-making level of Guanzhong city cluster traffic planning.
