2.4       Summary of Findings

During the nine hour study period, a total of 149 trucks were observed to travel through the Town without stopping. Of these 149 through trucks, 120 trucks passed through town in less than 15 minutes.  Of the 120 trucks that passed through town in less than 15 minutes, 20% were gravel trucks.

Extrapolating the nine hour observations to an estimate for daily (24 hour) volumes resulted in an estimate of approximately 200 trucks per day passing through the Town on Highway 12 without stopping within the Town. If it were to be assumed that the data set missed 20% of the matches due to incomplete data sets, then the figure would be approximately 250 trucks per day.
