Analysis of Congestion on Space and Time of Beijing’s Traffic Data

The urban development of Beijing, China has increased rapidly in recent years. Meanwhile, there is a larger increase in the possession of private cars. This paper is mainly based on the real time traffic data of urban roads and districts published by the Beijing Municipal Commission of Transport. Based on these data, we explored their distribution characteristics. Utilizing R programming, we determined the time sequence regularity in different seasons. By rattle analyzing of R, we distinguished the difference and relations of six districts as well as in four zones between different ring roads. In reference to the regional distribution, we took the conventional traffic control and other factors into consideration. Eventually, we draw the conclusion and provided some recommendations for delivery arrangements of freight companies and road users. Moreover, it can be adopted by policymakers to adjust the traffic rules for more efficient and real time adaptability.
