Traffic Volume Maps
What traffic volume maps are available for download?
Are traffic volume maps
available for years prior to 1998?
Yes, but not in an electronic format. For years prior to 1998, please contact Transportation at 480-644-2160.
How do I find the volume at a given intersection?
These maps show the average weekday volume (number
of vehicles) in thousands per 24 hour period.
To find the traffic volume at a given intersection,
add together the numbers north, south, east, and
west of the intersection and divide by two.
For example, the volume at Southern & Alma School is
(38.0 + 42.2 + 34.9 + 45.2)/2 = 80.15 or 80,150
vehicles per day.
Are the traffic volume counts taken in the year the map
is published?
No. Mesa only counts half of the streets in any given
year. For example, counts on the 2000 map were taken during
1998 and 1999. Values shown on this map for US 60 are 2004 counts provided by ADOT.
A legend is provided on each map to distinguish the
year each count was conducted. Because counts
were not taken in 2004, a 2005 map was not
published. Counts were taken on all streets in 2005
for the 2006 map.
