Abstract The paper sets out a path flow estimator suitable for the DEDALE database in Lyon, where traffic flow measurements are available at 6-minute intervals from 71 Traffic Data Collection Units (permanent counting stations). The estimator assumes that traffic assigns itself to paths according to the logit route choice model and that congestion leading to delay only forms on a link when its capacity is reached. An equivalent convex programming problem is formulated and an iterative solution procedure is set out. The estimation of the dispersion factor in, the logit model is discussed, and a column generation method is proposed to avoid the need for path enumeration. A number of propositions are proved.
