Data in Devon
Please note: Once the map window opens if you choose to maximise it you will need to click the page refresh button in the browser toolbar to get the map to fill the whole larger window.
Devon County Council collects, collates, analyses and reports various traffic data for hundreds of locations across the County each year, (excluding the Unitary Authority areas of Plymouth and Torbay and the Highways Agency Trunk Roads (M5, A38, A30 etc))
These provide details of traffic volume, speed, vehicle classification and cycle track usage.

Important Notes
- Please note there may well be a charge for the supply of any data. To see our current charges click here (8KB - pdf help).
- There are a large number of manual traffic count sites where the Count Type is shown as “17 Cat DFT Link Counts”. The County Council cannot supply the data from these sites as it is owned by the Department for Transport (DfT). Some data can be obtained via their website http://www.dft.gov.uk/matrix/ but for detailed information you might need to contact them direct. Click here for DfT contact details.
- If there is no data available at a specific site, it is possible for the County Council to arrange for certain surveys to be undertaken for you, for which a charge would be levied. To obtain a quotation, please send exact details and timescales to datateam@devon.gov.uk or telephone 0845 1551004.
- If there is no data available in your area of interest, and you intend to undertake a survey yourself or ask others to undertake it for you, you might need to obtain a Section 50 License from the County Council. To apply or find out more about this click here. Note that unlicensed surveys and equipment will be removed from site.
