ADOT utilizes data collected from the permanent automatic traffic recorders, an integral part of ADOT’s traffic data management system. That data will provide hourly/daily traffic patterns which, in turn, will provide the periods that the freeway operates at or close to “level of service c” – the highest level of traffic noise based on traffic volume and travel speeds. ADOT will continue to evaluate data and determine 2.5-hour windows of time - in the morning and afternoon - with similar traffic volumes when testing would occur. As previously noted, this will occur when average daily traffic counts return to more typical conditions.
