Data Analysis
AM peak observations
Cars, Taxi and SUVs constitute almost 60% of the traffic volume during
the peak-hour time period. Private vehicles dominate a large portion of this
percentage since most of the road users prefer private transport over public
transport. Espaa Blvd is considered to be congested during this time period
servicing an average of 2100 vehicles per hour. Busses that pass the
intersection is only around 40-50 units which can be considered very low
given the amount of units that traverse the intersection. The traffic flow is
very slow with intervals of stoppage at certain periods.
Nonpeak Observation
There was no noticeable decrease in the number of vehicles even
though it was considered a non-peak hour. There was an increase in the
number of Cars, Taxi and SUVs but the number of busses decreased. The
number of motorcycles remained at around 450-500 units. It can also be
observed that the truck units increased from an average of 40 units to 70
units.
PM peak observations
The most number of vehicles is around this time period with 4500-4900
units combined
for eastbound and westbound directions. Compared to AM
peak, Cars, Taxi and SUVs increased
by 30% and the number of jeepneys
also increased. Westbound vehicles are greater than
eastbound vehicles by
only a small fraction. Motorcycles remained at around 450 units.
