Because of specific expertise with high-volume, multi-lane vehicle classification, RDS is looked to for the majority of the most demanding sites in Maryland, such as multi-lane classification count stations along I-95, I-495, and I-270. These roadways are up to 12 lanes and have AADTs in excess of 240,000 vehicles; they are among the highest volume roadways in the nation. RDS is also performing all of ODOT’s contracted Interstate vehicle classification, including similarly challenging assignments to those in Maryland.
