About

The Calgary Traffic Counts System (CalTRACS) is a web-based GIS application used to retrieve and view transportation data studies completed throughout the city. You can view data summaries and download reports in PDF or Excel formats. Citizens are able to use CalTRACS to search and view available transportation data. CalTRACS also allows businesses, such as Transportation Engineering Consultants, to obtain existing data for use in analysis and reports.

 

Data stored in the system is collected by the Mobility Service Design Division within the City of Calgary, and is updated with new data as it is collected and verified. If the information below does not answer your question, please contact 311.

CalTRACS data sets

The data stored in CalTRACS includes data collected as part of the regular City of Calgary transportation monitoring program that is used to provide regular updates to the traffic volume flow maps, truck percent maps, and bike flow maps. Data is also collected on behalf of internal customers with The City of Calgary for use in their work and to help make decisions and evaluations.

 

Internal customers use transportation data to monitor system performance, make decisions, and quantify observations. Customers of transportation data refine and smooth raw data, perform engineering calculations and analysis, evaluate performance relative to policy and performance metrics, and make recommendations. Some examples of how internal City of Calgary business units use transportation data in their day-to-day work is listed below. For any questions about these examples, please contact 311 and ask to speak directly to the business unit responsible for the area you are interested.

 

The data set stored in CalTRACS only includes data collected by the City of Calgary Mobility Service Design Division, and does not include data collected by other business units, departments, and/or organizations. Please note, Stoney Trail and Deerfoot Trail are under the jurisdiction of the Government of Alberta, and therefore The City of Calgary generally does not collect data for these roadways. However, data for roads under the Province's jurisdiction may be accessed through the Alberta Transportation website at www.alberta.ca/transportation.

 

Collection methods

Transportation data is collected using manual count techniques as well as automatic counters. The data collection method varies depending on resources, costs, type of data to be collected, and time periods required.

 

Manual collection studies are studies where field personel observe and record data, and are typically limited to six-hour blocks (consisting of two hour shifts in the morning, midday, and afternoon). Manual data collection is usually completed using electronic count boards and tally sheets and is typically collected each year between April and October.

 

Automatic data collection is collected year-round, using various tools placed in The City's Transportation Network. Usually, pneumatic road tubes are laid across the road which detect vehicle movements as vehicles drive over the tubes. Sometimes, video data is collected along roadways and an external company, Miovision, processes the data through automatic video detection. Additionally, permanent count stations embedded in the roadway are also used to automatically collect data on a continual basis. Automatic data is typically collected for 24 hours, but may also be collected for six hours, 12 hours, or for multiple days.

 

Types of transportation data studies

 

All studies stored in CalTRACS fall into one of two categories; intersection data and segment data. When searching for data, it is important to understand the difference between intersection and segment data as it determines what type of data will be available as well as if data needs to be searched for at an intersection or beside/near the intersection (segment). Here are some details of Intersection and Segment studies, including descriptions of the study types that are included in the CalTRACS system.

 

 

Intersection data:

Intersection data

 

Intersection data is information at the junction of two roads and is often called a turning movement count (TMC). This data includes the number of vehicles travelling left, through, or right from all approaches to the intersection. Also, the number of pedestrians using the crosswalk on each intersection approach is often counted. Intersection data is typically collected for six hours as it is usually collected manually. However, intersection counts collected through automatic methods (such as those indicated as "Miovision") may have the time frames extended.

In CalTRACS, the intersection data is divided into two groups, Traffic Count at Intersections ( Traffic Count at Intersections ) and Traffic Count at Interchanges ( Traffic Count at Interchanges ):

 

Traffic Count at Intersections Traffic Counts at Intersection

Intersections are the point where two roads intersect and vehicles turn right, left, or travel straight through. The approaches to an intersection may include roadways, driveways, or ramps and are controlled by a signal, a roundabout, or they may be non-signalized.

For example, the east signal on 17 Avenue SW at Sarcee Trail is counted as a single Traffic Count at Intersection . This report includes vehicles approaching on 17 Avenue from east and west, and from the south via ramps from Sarcee Trail. Vehicles approaching from the west then turning right onto the loop ramp to go north on Sarcee Trail are counted as a "West Right" in the west approach section of the report. A "west right" movement is also often described as an "eastbound right turn".

Some Traffic Count at Intersection studies, called a pedestrian age breakdown, include observations of the pedestrian ages at the intersection. Each pedestrian crossing a crosswalk is counted and categorized by age.

 

Traffic Counts at Interchanges Traffic Counts at Interchange

Interchanges are locations where the junction of two roads is grade separated, allowing the main road to flow without interruption. The minor road typically includes several smaller intersections connected to the main road through ramps. Traffic Counts at Interchanges are a single point representation of all the movements within the interchange. These reports typically combine data from the intersections within the interchange area, as well as the through volume on the main road (obtained from segment data, described below). Typically, when converting intersection counts into interchange counts, irregular movements such as U-turns are assumed negligible.

For example, Sarcee Trail at 17 Avenue SW is an interchange where Sarcee Trail (the main road) is grade separated from 17 Avenue SW. The 17 Avenue bridge structure over Sarcee Trail has two signalized intersections, with ramps to and from Sarcee Trail. The Traffic Count at Interchange report for Sarcee Trail is an aggregation of the two traffic counts at the two signalized intersections, as well as the segment volume on Sarcee Trail. In the Traffic Count at Interchange report, the loop ramp from 17 Avenue West to Sarcee Trail North will appear as the "west left" which is the effective movement at the interchange despite the drivers not physically turning the steering wheel to the left. Meanwhile this identical volume is recorded as a "west right" in the Traffic Count at Intersection report for the east intersection of the interchange.

Traffic Count at Interchanges typically do not include pedestrian volumes at crosswalk, even when pedestrian facilities are available on the interchange. If pedestrian information is needed, refer to the individual intersection counts which form the overall interchange.

Intersection reports (both interchange and intersection) are developed from the following Study Types:

 

 

 

Segment data:

Segment data is information on a section of road (or pathway) between two intersections. This data only includes travel in a straight line and does not include any turning movement. Segment data is typically collected using automated tools over a 24-hour period or longer. These studies may include data such as total volume, vehicle classification, and speed. The data collection location is described as a relative bearing from an intersection or the section of road between two intersections.

 

Segment data

 

In CalTRACS, Segment data is separated into regular segment data (Traffic Counts at Segment Traffic Counts at Segment ) and permanent count station segment data (Traffic Counts at Perm Station Traffic Counts at Perm Station ).

 

Traffic Counts at Segment Traffic Counts at Segment

Traffic Counts at Segment are segment counts obtained from non-permanent data collection devices such as hoses or video cameras. Automated collection devices are temporarily placed on or near straight sections of roadways and pathways by data collection technicians. At the conclusion of the study, data collection technicians retrieve the device and download the data, and will relocate the collection device to other locations throughout the City. Most Traffic Counts at Segment studies are 24-hours long.

 

Traffic Counts at Perm Station Traffic Counts at Perm Station

Traffic Counts at Perm (Permanent) stations are a specific type of segment count which is collected continuously through a device permanently embedded in or beside a road. The continuous data collection allows analysis of daily, weekly, seasonal, or annual trends. Data from permanent count locations are often used to identify factors which can be applied to other data studies, often to account for seasonal or daily variations in traffic. In CalTRACS, each Traffic Counts at Perm Station study is one year in length.

 

Segment data reports are developed from the following types of segment data studies:

 

The following two tables illustrates the specifics of each study type to help users of CalTRACS locate specific data elements that they may be looking for. When searching for specific kinds of data, it might be helpful to look at multiple study types. For example, when looking for AM and PM vehicle intersection turning movements, the data may be found in several study types such as 6-hour intersection counts, 6-hour Pedestrian Age Breakdown, 6-hour All Modes Count, or Miovision All Modes, and one of these studies might be more recent than the others.

Study results

Studies can be located by using the several search functions within CalTRACS (See the section on "How to Navigate CalTRACS" for information on how to search for study locations). After a study location has been selected by clicking "View Studies", the various studies will appear on the left side of CalTRACS. You can choose from three different types of reports to view each study: 1)"Quick View" summary reports within the left-hand side of the CalTRACS window, 2) PDF reports (download), and 3) Excel reports (download).

 

  1. Quick View summary reports
    • Includes summary statistics for the study and does not require the user to download additional files. These reports provide quick access to information; however, it does not include all the details available in the PDF report or the Excel spreadsheet download.
  2. PDF reports
    • Contain a standardized PDF report that is generated for each study type. These reports include formatted and labelled data sets providing both raw data and summary statistics. The formatting and labeling contained in the PDF reports make these reports appropriate for most users, and they may be printed and incorporated into other reports.
    • PDF reports are not available for permanent station classification and permanent station speed studies. Meanwhile, the permanent station volume studies only include a PDF report showing summary statistics for the year (including season variation factors). The full set of data is instead available in the Excel reports.
    • Details on how to read the PDF reports for the various studies is included in the section on how to read Traffic Count Reports.
  3. Excel reports
    • Excel reports include the raw data which can be further processed using Excel or the data can be easily uploaded into other analysis tools. The Excel reports provide advanced data users with the flexibility to use data in their analysis without having to do manual data entry.
    • The user of Excel reports will need to ensure the data is used and labelled appropriately within their own reports and analysis as the Excel reports generated by CalTRACS do not include data labels and notations. In cases where the data labels in the Excel reports are not clear, refer to the corresponding PDF report which will include data labels.
    • For all Permanent Count station Excel reports, details regarding the data labels may be found in the section of how to read Traffic Count Reports.

8) Associating approach description to map

The reports from CalTRACS typically use cardinal directions to indicate road approaches (such as 'north approach') rather than indicating the specific roadway name. Many roadways are oriented such that it might be difficult to confirm which approach in the report corresponds to which roadway (for example, intersections where the roads are set at a 45 degree angle rather than north/south and east/west). The approach direction indicated in reports may be confirmed using CalTRACS tools that highlight portions of the map. Select the "View Details" option from the dialogue box for the active intersection. In the left panel, click "Segments" then select a direction of travel, which will then highlight the corresponding intersection leg on the map.

For example, Country Hills Boulevard at Royal Birch Boulevard NW (112 Avenue NW) is a skewed intersection. When reviewing the intersection report, it may be unclear from the traffic count intersection report if Country Hills Boulevard is the east and west approach, or if it is the north and south approach. To confirm, click "View Details", then "West In" from the segment list, and a section of Country Hills Boulevard is highlighted. This means that Country Hills Boulevard is the east and west approaches, Royal Birch Boulevard is the south approach, and 112 Avenue NW is the north approach.

How to read Traffic Count reports

To help you read some of the traffic count reports from CalTRACS, below are some explanations for common reports.


Traffic Count intersection report

 

Standard 6-hour intersection counts:

For standard 6-hour intersection counts, data is collected in three time periods for two hours each, resulting in a total of 6 hours. Standard 6-Hour Intersection reports use the following time periods.

 

AM         07:00 - 09:00

Mid-day 11:00 - 13:00

PM         16:00 - 18:00

 

Data is saved in 15 minute increments.

 

 

Non-standard (Other) intersection counts :

School Counts, and 5 hours intersections counts, and other custom studies may have different study lengths and time periods for data collection. Refer to the report to confirm data collection times.

 

 

 

Main Headings

 

 

Sample report header

 

There are four main columns with cardinal headings. Each column contains the observed volumes of vehicles, trucks, pedestrians and bikes as well as calculated numbers for each indicated approach. Vehicles, trucks & bikes are counted as they approach the intersection. Pedestrians are counted as they cross the approach.

 

North Approach:    This leg contains the observed data and calculations for the north approach to the intersection.

 

South Approach:    This leg contains the observed data and calculations for the south approach to the intersection.

 

East Approach:    This leg contains the observed data and calculations for the east approach to the intersection.

 

West Approach:    This leg contains the observed data and calculations for the west approach to the intersection.

 

 

Sub headings

 

Period Beginning: This identifies the start time of each 15-minute increment.

 

(Direction) Left: Vehicles approaching an intersection and making a left turn.

(Direction) Straight: Vehicles approaching an intersection and continuing through.

 

(Direction) Right: Vehicles approaching an intersection and making a right turn

 

(Direction) Truck: The number of trucks included in the above movements. A truck is defined as any vehicle with more than four wheels (except pickups).

 

(Direction) Pedestrians: Pedestrians that cross that leg of the intersection.

(Direction) Bike: Bicycles that approach from the same direction regardless of any turning movements.

 

 

Vehicle Totals: The total vehicles for each 15-minute period.

 

The observed volumes for each 15-minute increment are recorded below the sub-headings.

 

 

 

Calculations for each time period

 

Calculations for each time period

 

Below the field data for each two hour period, a series of tabulated and summarised information is shown. Each row of calculated data is described as follows:

 

TOTAL : Refers to the sum of the 15-minute increments for each heading, over the 2-hour count period.

 

PEAK: Refers to the peak hour volume, which is the sum of the four highest, consecutive vehicle volume 15-minute intervals for all approaches. Each of the four peak consecutive 15-minute intervals has their corresponding "Period Beginning" time underlined.

 

PHF: Refers to the Peak Hour Factor, which is calculated for each cardinal direction as a ratio of the peak one hour volume divided by four times the peak 15-minute interval volume.

 

Total Flow : Refers to the percentage of the six-hour total traffic volume that occurs on the approach during the two-hour count period.

 

Truck Flow: Refers to the percentage of trucks included in the two-hour total traffic volume that occurs on the approach.

 

Total Volume: Refers to the total volume of vehicle traffic that occurred on the approach for that count period.

 

 

Calculations for the entire study period

 

Calculations for the entire study period

 

Below the field data and calculations for all time periods is a series of tabulated and summarised information. Each row of calculated data is described as follows:

 

 

6-Hour Total: Refers to the grand total of each of the sub-headings for all time periods.

(Note: the total vehicle volume for the entire intersection is in the far right column)

 

4-Hour Total: Refers to the vehicle volume for each movement and the total vehicle volume for the AM and PM time periods combined.

 

 

"Bound" Totals

 

This indicates the number of vehicles travelling in each direction and the percentage of the total that number represents for each leg of the intersection. The numbers are calculated as follows:

 

North Leg: North Bound = sum of South Straight, East Right & West Left

South Bound = sum of North Left, North Straight & North Right

South Leg: South Bound = sum of North Straight, East Left & West Right

North Bound = sum of South Left, South Straight & South Right

 

East Leg: East Bound = sum of North Left, South Right & West Straight

West Bound = sum of East Left, East Straight & East Right

 

West Leg: Westbound = sum of North Right, South Left & East Straight

Eastbound = sum of West Left, West Straight & West Right
