Geography

Road network within the 1 km polygon

Links coloured by average weekday truck VDT · click any link for details

Line colour: grey = low truck VDT (0–50%), orange = medium (50–85%), red = high (85–100%). — — = 1 km radius polygon boundary. xMap traffic probe data, Feb 1 – Apr 27, 2026.

Traffic Volume

Daily vehicle-distance-travelled index

Passenger and truck VDT indexed to baseline (100 = Feb 1–28 weekday average)

Baseline = weekday (Tue–Fri) average, Feb 1–28, 2026. Solid = daily value, dashed = 7-day rolling average. Dotted line = baseline (100).

Speed Analysis

Speed vs volume relationship

Higher speeds at lower volumes indicate free-flowing traffic — critical for travel time reliability

Each dot = one day, coloured by month. Lower-right = higher volume, lower speed (typical). Upper-left = lower volume, higher speed (free-flow).

Harmonic mean speed (km/h). Useful for assessing congestion levels and travel time consistency across the day.

Vehicle Composition

Truck share of total vehicle-distance-travelled

Weekly truck VDT as a percentage of total (truck + passenger) — relevant for logistics and freight planning

Truck VDT as % of total. Dotted line = average across the full data period. Useful for freight corridor identification.

Week-over-week % change in passenger traffic index. Green = increase vs prior week, red = decrease. Shows short-term momentum.

Period Comparison

Last 4 weeks vs baseline

Weekly VDT index compared to baseline period · colour-coded by magnitude of change

Cells colour-coded: deeper red = larger drop vs baseline; green = above baseline. Baseline = weekday (Tue–Fri) avg Feb 1–28, 2026 (= 100).

Weekday / Weekend Split

Weekday vs weekend traffic patterns

Comparison of average daily VDT: weekdays (Mon–Fri) vs weekends (Sat–Sun) — for site revenue modelling and shift planning

Average daily passenger VDT — weekday (Mon–Fri) vs weekend (Sat–Sun) per week. Gap = weekend intensity.

Average daily truck VDT — weekday vs weekend. Trucks typically run flatter across the week.

Cumulative

Cumulative vehicle-distance-travelled

Running total of all kilometres driven within the polygon — the widening gap between truck and passenger recovery

Cumulative sum of daily VDT from Feb 1. Diverging lines = one vehicle type recovering faster than the other.

Hourly Pattern

Traffic by hour of day

Average VDT per hour across the full data window — essential for shift planning and peak-hour analysis

Aggregated from raw probe data at 60-minute epochs. Passenger + truck VDT summed across all links in the polygon per hour.

Day Curve

Day-of-week rhythm & weekly breakdown

How traffic patterns shift across the week

Average km/day by day of week, across the full data window.

Total weekly VDT aggregated from daily values. Gaps = incomplete weeks at data boundaries.
