Traffic Survey

As part of our topic on the Environment we looked at the amount of traffic that was travelling on three different roads. We worked in small groups and made a tally chart of different vehicles that past us. We allowed 10 minutes on each road to ensure the experiment was fair. We counted the traffic on Lanwern Road, Sardis Road and Rhondda Road.
We found that there were a small amount of cars and the odd van on Lanwern Road, quite a lot of cars and lots of vans on Sardis Road but Rhondda Road was so busy we couldn't keep up!! There were cars, lorries, vans, buses, motorbikes and cyclists!!
We had so much fun counting. Tomorrow we will look at the data we collected and create graphs from it.
