A 5 day study at Kaplakriki analysed 99,124 distinct vehicles and found 42% of traffic was through-traffic, giving planners the evidence to redesign a regional junction and cut congestion without new roadworks.

The challenge

Planners working on Reykjanesbraut needed to know who actually used a key junction, local or regional drivers, before committing to a redesign. Counting by hand could not answer it.

The Parka solution

Parka analysed 99,124 distinct vehicles in 5 days and found 42% of traffic was through-traffic, not local. The data identified traffic by postcode, vehicle type, vehicle class, and rental versus private, letting planners redesign the junction for the drivers who really used it.

Funding justification strengthened, safety improvements targeted, and congestion reduced without new roadworks.
