Traffic Count Improvements

Pete-Y-CS commented 7 months ago

A couple of things have been highlighted by inspections that could be improved about traffic count:

Don't filter only to 2022 (we might want to discuss with folks a different cutoff). If we do this we will want to also display the year the count happened.
Rescale our colouring, or at least have an inspector mode which colours the dots green, amber, red, CRITICAL COLOUR, depending on whether it's 0-1000, 1000-5000, 5000-10000, or >10000 (probably misremembering the exact bands)
Use the 'raw counts' from the bottom of the manual count point page: https://roadtraffic.dft.gov.uk/manualcountpoints/47486 to determine the max motor vehicle count for any hour. More than 1000 is a critical issue

Need to followup with more people about the bands. The route check 21 "motor vehicle volume" is based on per hour, which we don't have yet -- need to scrape or ask DfT for a bulk download. "Provision of crossings" is gated on vpd of < or > 8000, so maybe we have different controls depending on the check being done.

Ah I'm blind, https://roadtraffic.dft.gov.uk/downloads has a raw count bulk download
