Is there more traffic on weekends than midweek in Redcar

As we can see from my results there were more vehicles on the weekend but only 10 more. So this means that my hypothesis is correct but only just. My results show that there were more commercial vehicles on the weekday. This is what I expected as there are more businesses operating on weekdays than weekends.

I think that the way that I carried out the traffic survey was the best way possible. Although if I had done more than two traffic surveys I would get a more accurate result. I tried to make the test as fair as possible by doing it in the same place and the same time of the day. But there was one thing that I couldn’t make fair and that was the weather. On the weekday the weather was miserable and raining on and off. On the weekend the weather was fine and it was sunny. I am sure that if the weather was the same on both surveys I would also get a more accurate result. The weekday that we went on had bad weather and I am pretty sure that if the weather had of been better there would have been more vehicles because more people want to get out of there homes. But there may have been more people walking if it was sunny so the number of vehicles would of gone down. There is only one way that I would be able to tell and that would be to go back down on a weekday and make sure that the weather was the same. So I think the traffic survey was the best method but there  are many ways of improving it.
