Traffic Counting

Automatic traffic counting on the main road network of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina has been carried out since 2005. The first printed publication "Traffic counting on the main roads of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina in 2006" was published in 2007. 

Counters of the Slovenian company Mikrobit, i.e. automatic counting devices type QLD-6CX and TLCD 10, are installed around the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Both types of automatic counting devices use a couple of bidirectional inductive loops. These devices classify vehicles by time intervals, group of vehicle and speed threshold. Microbit devices classify vehicles according to the inductive footprint. Currently, 120 Microbit automatic traffic counters are in use.
