Replica Releases 2024 Traffic Count Estimates to Help States Save Time and Money
LEAWOOD, Kan., April 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Replica, a software company that provides more than a dozen datasets and a suite of tooling and applications that span mobility, demographics and land use, has released its 2024 Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT) estimates. These traffic counts help state transportation departments meet federal reporting deadlines without burdensome high costs and time-consuming fieldwork.
Helping States Meet Federal Deadlines
By 2026, states must report key roadway data, including AADT, to the Federal Highway Administration for all public roads. Traditionally, gathering this data required expensive, labor-intensive field studies. Now, Replica provides a cost-effective solution using a composite of big data sources and statistical modeling, methods that FHWA recently approved for safety reporting.
Why Does Traffic Data Matter?
AADT measures the average number of vehicles traveling on a road each day, averaged over the entire year. It's a crucial metric for:
- Planning road improvements
- Improving roadway safety
- Conducting traffic impact studies
- Meeting federal compliance requirements
With Replica's data, states can make smarter infrastructure decisions while complying with federal deadlines.
A Smarter, More Affordable Approach
Replica's technology eliminates the need for costly field data collection. Instead, agencies get fast, accurate traffic estimates through an easy-to-use online platform.
With Replica's 2024 data, transportation agencies can:
✔ Get FHWA-compliant traffic estimates for all road types
✔ Access five years of historical traffic data
✔ Reduce the cost and effort of manual traffic count
Industry Leadership
"With FHWA now recognizing the power of big data, our platform makes it easier and more affordable for agencies to meet federal AADT requirements while improving road safety and mobility," said Nick Bowden, CEO of Replica.
To help agencies navigate the latest FHWA guidelines, Replica hosted a webinar covering best practices for using big data in AADT reporting. Watch it here.
