Abstract

In this article, the authors investigate the introduction of average speed measurement. As far as we know, this study is unique in that it is the first domestic analysis based on significant amounts of real traffic data, collected over a longterm period – over several semesters. The focus of the investigations was the highway network, and in particular, two highways of high priority: M5 and M6, which had significantly different parameters in terms of traffic volume and seasonal restrictions in 2018.
