Our data shows 4,836 vehicles per day on the average road in Maine, and 32,675,550 vehicle-miles traveled per day (≈11.9 billion per year) across its 8,426 miles of monitored roads. Trucks are 8.7% of traffic, close to the 9.3% across the US.
Maine's average daily traffic volume is 31% lower than the national average - 4,836 vehicles per day against 6,986 - suggesting less traffic load per road - lighter roads for freight, but less passing trade for roadside retail. Across the whole network, that travel is about 0.4% of the national total. By volume, Maine's 4,836 vehicles per day trails 74% of states nationwide.
At 34.6 minutes, the average travel time matches the national level closely. Its average travel time of 34.6 minutes is longer than 87% of states nationwide.
At 23% lower than the national level, the 14.6% congestion ratio signals smoother traffic flow - crucial for traffic control improvement and logistics planning.
