Abstract
This article presents the results of an overall analysis of traffic demand characteristics on Republic of Serbia primary road network based on available data for the years 1988-2009. The analysis is based on network subdivision in three functional entities and collected data on values of basic parameters as Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT) and Vehicle Kilometers / Year. Traffic demand changes of international origin, destination and transit trips are of special interest due to the fact that primary rural road network in Serbia accommodates a substantial volume of such road movement. Road sections of Pan European Multimodal Transportation Corridor X in Serbia, actually the trunk roads in Southeast Europe, are analyzed further in order to define demand characteristics and future prospects. Based on the general analysis results conclusions are defined together with recommendations for near future actions.
