On Friday, the daily flow profile is less peaked than on Monday and Tuesday. Furthermore, on
Monday, the off-peak traffic flow and evening peak flow are lower than on other
weekdays, resulting in a lower daily traffic flow. The differences found are
probably mainly caused by variations in activity patterns. The results of this
study have implications for the implementation of traffic management tools, such
as traffic signals. Furthermore, the obtained insight can be used for the further
development of travel demand management. Finally, when traffic is counted
during a limited period of the day, the differences between the daily flow profiles
of weekdays have to be taken into account.
