Data_Quality_Information:

Logical_Consistency_Report: None

Completeness_Report:

Records were placed on the increasing LRS, unless there were no lanes carrying traffic in the increasing direction of mileposting at the location the record was coded to. These records were placed on the decreasing LRS and merged with the increasing dataset.

Lineage:

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

Count location AADTs and Direction of Travel were downloaded from WSDOT's Datamart. For records with a Traffic Count Leg Code of 1 or 2, 0.01 was subtracted or added (respectively) from the record's ARM value.

Attribute_Label: DoubleUnitTruckPct

Attribute_Definition:

The percentage of total daily traffic represented by tractors and single-unit trucks with a trailer (i.e. Federal Highway Administration vehicle classes 8 through 10)

Attribute:

Attribute_Label: Year_2013

Attribute_Definition:

The annual average daily traffic figure calculated by the WSDOT Statewide Travel and Collision Data Office for the roadway location and year that the figure is provided for.

Attribute:

Attribute_Label: Location

Attribute_Definition:

Text description of the count location in terms of the State Route Milepost and Ahead/Back Indicator of a nearby physical feature of the roadway (e.g., an intersection or bridge). Within this description, the words 'before' and 'after' are used in relation to the increasing direction of mileposting.
