Traffic on roads and major highways are getting bigger with time and its characterization is a challengingtask. For channelizing traffic flow and decision making regarding the traffic, traffic flow models are very efficient. Theobjective of this research study was to develop a traffic flow relationship. Therefore the data regarding the speed (u), density(v) and flow rate (q) was collected at a section on Dir-Chitral road. The traffic flow data was collected during week daysfrom Tuesday till Thursday. Samples were collected at different flow times of the day using automated traffic counters fittedat the study section. Statistical test was set as a criteria for data analysis. The collected traffic data, traffic flow models wereobtained.
