ANALYSIS OF THE TRAFFIC STREAM DISTRIBUTION IN TERMS OF IDENTIFICATION OF AREAS WITH THE HIGHEST EXHAUST POLLUTION

Abstract

Transport is a sector that is said to be negatively affecting the environment. The continuous development of transport increases the negative impact on the environment and civilization. In the article authors present the parameters that were used to describe the size of harmful transport exhaust emissions, in particular by means of road transport and the factors affecting their size. The areas where the level of concentrations of air pollutants are exceeded in Poland were characterized and analysed. Also examples of the stream traffic distribution in the selected area of the transport network were presented.
