Abstract

Traffic flow data has been used in various disciplines, including geography, transportation, urban planning, and public health. However, existing datasets often have limitations such as low spatiotemporal resolution and inconsistent quality due to data collection methods and the lack of adequate data cleaning process. This paper introduces a long-term traffic flow dataset at an intra-city scale with high spatio-temporal granularity. The dataset covers the Glasgow City Council area for four consecutive years spanning the COVID-19 pandemic, from October 2019 to September 2023, providing comprehensive temporal and spatial coverage. Such detailed information facilitates diverse applications, including traffic dynamic analysis, traffic management, infrastructure planning, and urban environment improvement. Also, it provides a valuable dataset to understand traffic flow change during a once-in-a-lifetime pandemic event.
