What this report is
This is the Atlanta Regional Commission's (ARC) CBI regional congestion report: an automated, data-driven analysis of recurring traffic congestion across Interstates, Arterials in ARC's 21-county metro Atlanta planning area. It is built directly from 5-minute interval probe vehicle speed data, not survey or anecdotal input — every number in the other tabs traces back to the record counts below.
This report is not the official FHWA CBI Tool software and should not be represented as such — it is an independent, custom-built implementation of the published CBI methodology, adapted and altered by ARC for the Atlanta region's specific corridor network, data sources, and reporting needs. Per the CBI Tool Software License Agreement, this adaptation is plainly identified here as an altered version of the FHWA CBI concept, not a redistribution of the original software, and FHWA / the U.S. Government do not endorse this implementation. For the full technical write-up, see the CBI Technical Report document.
Data source
NPMRDS (National Performance Management Research Data Set) from INRIX,
covering passenger vehicles and trucks. Scope: the 21 counties in ARC's Atlanta region
planning area, 17,388 TMC (Traffic Message Channel) road segments, weekdays only
(Monday–Friday — no weekend data exists in the source, which is why weekday and
hourly breakdowns in this report never include Saturday/Sunday) from January 1
through December 31, 2025. Source probe fields: speed, historical average speed,
reference (free-flow) speed, travel time, and data density; volume/AADT figures are
from NPMRDS2 2025. Road functional classification (Interstate / Expressway / Arterial
/ Collector / Local) follows the FHWA f_system code carried in the TMC
metadata.
Methodology, in brief
For each analyzed corridor, every day's speed readings are scanned for periods where traffic drops below 70% of free-flow reference speed. Recurring patterns across the year are grouped into discrete recurring bottlenecks — specific locations that congest on a predictable basis — and ranked by a severity index combining how often they occur, how large a queue they produce, and how much speed drops. A small number of corridors — typically beltways like I-285, where congestion runs fairly uniformly along a long stretch rather than concentrating at one point — fall back to a segment-by-segment occurrence profile instead of a single ranked list when no one location stands out enough to qualify as a discrete peak.
In practice, this means an Arterial's occurrence percentage should be read as "how often this location sees sustained slow travel, including routine signal/stop-sign operation" rather than "how often something is abnormally wrong" the way it can be read on a freeway. The ranking within Arterials is still meaningful for comparing locations against each other, and the peak hour/day patterns still point at real commute-driven congestion layered on top of that baseline — but absolute occurrence numbers are not directly comparable between Arterials and Interstates/Expressways, and a 95–100% Arterial occurrence figure does not mean that location is congested nearly as severely as a 95–100% Interstate figure would. This is a known, general limitation of applying freeway-oriented bottleneck detection to signalized roads, not specific to this implementation — field verification (signal timing plans, turning movement counts) is recommended before acting on any single Arterial location in isolation.
Because this effect is strongest on rural, lower-lane-count Arterials — fewer through lanes concentrate traffic through the same signals and stop signs that inflate the occurrence baseline — Arterial corridors with any rural segment are excluded from the region-wide Top Bottlenecks ranking shown elsewhere in this report, so they don't outrank genuinely severe freeway interchange bottlenecks on a metric that isn't directly comparable. Their own bottlenecks are still fully analyzed and reported in each corridor's own section and Word report — only their participation in the network-wide ranking is affected.
That corridor-level rule catches rural Arterials, but the same underlying mechanism — a flat, non-time-varying reference speed that misreads ordinary signal-cycle or short ramp-segment noise as congestion — also shows up on individual bottlenecks located on otherwise fully-urban Arterial corridors. A second, more direct check now runs per-bottleneck: any Arterial-group bottleneck where at least 15% of overnight (12 AM–4 AM) readings are still flagged "congested" — when there is essentially no traffic to cause a real queue — is excluded from the ranking and from the region map's bottleneck layer individually, regardless of which corridor it's on. Two other proxies were tried and rejected before this: a bottleneck's extent spanning its entire corridor (rejected — flagged genuine short interchange-approach bottlenecks, e.g. Camp Creek Pkwy at I-285) and low AADT as a stand-in for sparse, unreliable sampling (rejected — tested directly against each reading's data-density classification, and the two run in the opposite direction from what that theory predicts). The overnight-reading test is the one signal confirmed to track the actual mechanism directly.
Corridor eligibility is checked before ranking: a road must have road_miles ≥ 0.5 AND (road_miles ≥ 1.0 OR at least 4 supporting TMCs) to be ranked at all — a road that is both very short and thinly supported is excluded outright, since its density figure divides by a near-zero denominator and is not a meaningfully comparable "corridor" measurement (confirmed directly: GA-205, 0.54 mi on just 2 TMCs with 82.6% of its own delay concentrated in one of them, fails this test; GA-11, 8.06 mi on 15 TMCs, passes). Every eligible road's own worst TMC is separately checked: max TMC share of delay = maxi(EAVHDi) ÷ EAVHDtotal — a road can pass eligibility and still have most of its delay concentrated in one segment (flagged, not excluded, in the ranked table) rather than spread across the corridor. Recurrence and speed reduction are LENGTH-WEIGHTED averages across a road's segments (not a plain mean), so a handful of short TMC fragments don't carry the same influence as long ones. Recurrence itself is measured from each day's worst PEAK-HOUR AVERAGE speed, not its worst single 5-minute reading — an earlier version of this calculation checked any 5-minute dip within the peak window, which inflated recurrence toward saturation across nearly every segment; anchoring to the hourly average fixed that.
On "Estimated": this database has no observed hourly traffic volume — only AADT (an annual daily average per segment). The primary hourly distribution factor (HDF) is a real, published, count-station-derived curve (Delaware DOT Traffic Monitoring Program, "Hourly Distribution of AADT for Traffic Groups," Average Weekday Traffic, 2002 — averaged across that source's 7 populated traffic-pattern groups, since its group-to-facility-type legend was not available to confirm which column is specifically "urban arterial"), not a fabricated one, but it is still the least-defensible input to EAVHD and the first thing to replace with real GDOT continuous-count-station hourly profiles once available. To test how much that assumption actually matters, EAVHD density was recomputed under 3 alternate plausible hourly-distribution scenarios (a flatter real curve, a uniform 1/24-per-hour baseline, and a synthetic AM+PM commuter double-peak) and compared to the primary ranking — Spearman's ρ came back in the 0.995–0.999 range with 19–20 of the same 20 roads staying in the top 20 regardless of scenario, demonstrating the ranking is stable under alternative reasonable hourly distributions rather than an artifact of exactly which curve was chosen (see the Top Arterials tab for the live numbers). A Congestion Pattern (COP) diagnostic column also classifies each road by the SHAPE of its own INRIX-observed congestion — deliberately NOT called a Traffic Pattern Group, since that term already means a volume/count concept in traffic engineering, and speed shape cannot be reliably converted into a traffic-volume distribution — shown for context only, and does not affect ranking or select a different HDF curve per road. The prior severity_index-based scoring for this ranking is kept in the table only as an experimental comparison column, slated for removal once EAVHDdensity is fully validated.

How this helps ARC
Data structure and scope of this report
Records "read" are the full regional dataset queried; records "analyzed" are the subset that fed into the corridors, segments, and events shown in this report.
| Road segments in the source network (TMC records) | 17,388 |
| Speed observations read region-wide (5-minute probe records) | 427,676,537 (2025-01-01 – 2025-12-31) |
| Speed observations analyzed for this report | 148,107,563 |
| Corridors analyzed (full pipeline) | 92 (16 Interstate, 26 Expressway, 50 Arterial) |
| Corridor segments analyzed | 2,806 |
| Congestion events detected | 544,583 |
| Recurring bottlenecks identified | 215 |
| Daily bottleneck characterization records | 56,115 |
| Analysis period | 2025-01-01 to 2025-12-31 (261 analyzed days) |
Each bar sums every detected congestion event's mile-hours (one mile of roadway congested for one hour, added up across every event) for that calendar month, across all analyzed Interstate and Arterial corridors.
Same mile-hours total, grouped by day of week across the full analysis period. This is a total, not a per-day average, so a period with more Fridays than Mondays will naturally weight Friday higher.
Each event is sliced into the calendar hours it actually overlaps, with its mile-hours split proportionally to how many minutes fall in each hour, then summed by hour of day — this avoids crediting an entire multi-hour event (e.g. a 7-hour overnight incident) to just its start hour.
Same mile-hours total, attributed to the county of each event's upstream (first) segment. Only Interstate and Arterial corridors are analyzed, so this reflects the network studied here, not each county's full roadway congestion.
Average probe speed by hour of day, region-wide — one line per FHWA functional road class (Interstate/Expressway/Arterial/Collector/Local, by each TMC's own direct functional classification, not inferred) plus the overall system-wide average. Unlike the four charts above, this measures raw speed, not mile-hours of congestion, so it shows WHEN each road class slows down and by how much, rather than how much total congestion accumulated. The Arterial curve's highest-speed hour and lowest-speed hour set the free-flow/peak-hour reference used by the Intersection Congestion Severity page's methodology.
Highest Regional Congestion Day
The single calendar date with the highest total region-wide congestion (event mile-hours) of the analysis period — a different, more specific question than the "Worst Day of Week" KPI above, which averages across every date sharing that weekday.
Same proportional-overlap hourly slicing as the Congestion by Hour of Day chart above, but scoped to just this one date rather than summed across the whole year — shows how this specific day's congestion built up and cleared.
Every ranking-eligible bottleneck that actually occurred on this date, colored on the same region-wide AADT-weighted severity scale as the Region Map tab.
Reading this map
Colored, full-width sections are the exact extent of a detected recurring bottleneck — not the whole corridor — colored by AADT-weighted severity (see the Metadata tab for why traffic volume factors in). Two directions of the same physical road (e.g. I-285 Clockwise / Counterclockwise) are drawn with a small fixed sideways offset so they render as two distinct parallel lines instead of overlapping into one.
Color follows the same orange-to-dark-red language most map apps use for heavy traffic, so it reads at a glance without needing the legend: light orange is the least severe of these bottlenecks (still a real, confirmed recurring one — not "fine"), dark maroon the most. The 5 color classes are K-means clustered on this run's actual severity distribution rather than a fixed scale, so the breaks reflect real gaps in how severe this region's bottlenecks are, not an arbitrary percentage.
Bottlenecks confirmed as false-flagged by the overnight-congestion diagnostic (a flat reference speed misreading signal-cycle or ramp-geometry noise as congestion) are excluded from this layer entirely, not just deprioritized — see the Metadata tab.
A corridor with no colored sections either has none of its congestion concentrated at a discrete, repeatable location, or falls back to a segment-by-segment profile instead (see that corridor's own section in the Corridors tab).
Collector and Local roads don't go through bottleneck detection (too few multi-segment corridors exist), so they aren't shown on this map.
The Corridors tab's severity index is a different, more complete score than plain occurrence: it multiplies occurrence rate by annual queue mile-hours and by how much speed drops, then scales by traffic volume (AADT) — that AADT-weighted figure is exactly what's clustered here for the bottleneck layer's color.
Road Class (line thickness)
Bottleneck Severity
(Google Maps-style traffic colors)
Every recurring bottleneck identified across all 92 analyzed corridors, ranked region-wide by AADT-weighted severity (geometric severity index — occurrence × annual queue mile-hours × speed drop — scaled by peak-segment traffic volume relative to the region's typical bottleneck; see the Metadata tab for the full methodology and why volume weighting was added). The top 10 are highlighted below and in the full list. Downtown Connector Northbound and Southbound each appear as a single row here despite spanning many named exits — for more detail on their individual exit-by-exit congestion, see the Corridors section.

* The individual exit severity scores above look modest because each is scored on its own short segment (average 0.20 mi here) — severity scales directly with segment length (annual mile-hours = congested hours × miles), so a short segment can only ever accumulate a fraction of the mile-hours a longer one does at the same occurrence rate. Scored as a whole corridor instead — this direction's full detected bottleneck extent, as shown in the Top Bottlenecks tab — it ranks the single highest severity_index region-wide (8,057.3, AADT-weighted 21,593.5).

Severity index (below and in the chart) ranks only the discrete bottleneck locations identified on this corridor, combining how often each occurs, how large a queue it produces, and how much speed drops — a different, more complete measure than the Region Map's color, which shows only how often each segment congests. This corridor's mini-map is colored by that same occurrence rate for comparison.

Top Arterials by Estimated Vehicle-Delay Density
Ranks named arterial roads/paths (e.g. Buford Hwy, GA-42, N Druid Hills Rd) by Estimated Annual Vehicle-Hours of Delay per mile (EAVHD density) — a congestion- CONCENTRATION measure, not total regional burden. See the Metadata tab for the full methodology, including why "Estimated," the corridor-eligibility rule, and the recurrence calculation.
Reading this map
Every TMC segment belonging to a top-20 ranked road is drawn along its real road curve (same shapefile-derived geometry as the Region Map tab), colored by that road's Estimated Annual Vehicle-Hours of Delay (EAVHD) density class.
EAVHD Density Classes
(veh-hrs/mi, K-means)
Bubble size and color both track recurrence — how consistently each road runs congested — while position shows delay density (x) against how much speed drops (y).
