  • Abstract
    The initial development of the Instrumented City project, which involves constructing a database of road traffic data provided by Leicestershire County Council for use throughout the UK academic transport research community is described. A possible architecture for a general transport database is outlined. The Instrumented City project and database are then described in some detail, and possible future developments are discussed.
