About this dataset

  • The map includes all 2025 annual average daily flow records from the DfT download, with one point per count-point identifier. Northern Ireland is not included.
  • Values describe the average day across 2025 and both directions of travel. They do not show live congestion, pedestrian footfall, or traffic at a particular hour.
  • Coverage includes major roads and a sample of minor roads. The absence of a point does not mean a road has no traffic.
  • Keep Counted and Estimated records distinct. Some estimates use earlier counts, so local figures can be less reliable than regional totals.
  • Darker red points show higher motor-vehicle flow. Select a point to read its value range, vehicle counts, and estimation method.
