Abstract

The process of building a transport model requires carrying out extensive traffic measurements and travel behaviours analyses. Part of traffic measurements is used: in the process of building a transport model, to determine structure of demand for transport and to verify the quality of the developed model. It is important to adopt an appropriate research methodology and scope of research, tailored to the needs of developing a transport model using the four-step trip-based travel demand modelling process. This article is devoted to the review of methodologies, according to which Comprehensive Traffic Survey was implemented in recent years in Poland. Case study of the construction of a transport model for the city of Bielsko-Biała was shown. The ways of representing the results of researches and measurements of road traffic have been presented.
