Abstract

The 2015 annual analyses of the permanent automatic counting stations in Germany contains results on the traffic development on the federal trunk road network and detailed results for 1,744 counting stations. The federal states recorded and processed the data in cooperation with Federal Highway Research Institute (BASt); this was carried out under commission to the Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure (BMVI). The present investigation was based on data for 2015; the data were then subjected to an additional examination, analysed and compared with the results from the previous year. The annual distance travelled on motorways in Germany was 237.6 thousand million vehicle km; 107.4 were travelled on rural federal roads. The average daily traffic (ADT) reached 50,200 vehicles per 24 hours and 9,450 vehicles per 24 hours respectively. The relative variance in ADT values for 2015/2014, which is calculated using the permanent counting stations as a basis, averaged +2.7 % on motorways and +0.6 % on federal roads too. This means that there was a variance of +2.9 % in annual distances travelled on motorways compared with the previous year, and of -0.1 % on federal roads. The results of the individual counting stations and the data on the location of the permanent automatic counting stations are also available as excel-table and UTF-8-files at the following publishing house: Carl Schuenemann Verlag GmbH, Bremen. These files can be downloaded under www.schuenemann-verlag.de; a fee is charged for this service. A little part of the presented results as well as hourly data can also be downloaded under www.bast.de -> Statistik -> Automatische Zählstellen for free. (Author/publisher)
