Sažetak
Congestion is one of the key problems faced by traffic engineers and authorities. The application of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) is one of the main approaches to solve this constant problem. The ITS is particularly significant in cases of post-disaster occurrences such as flood, fire, or earthquake. The new pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2, named COVID-19, has elements of a post-disaster events. So far, not many researchers deal with its impact on the traffic flow caused by it. Besides that, there is a lack of research on the effect on the traffic flow caused by earthquakes. In this paper, we try to investigate traffic flow trends before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, we analyze traffic flow during the earthquake, which hit Zagreb on Sunday 22nd March 2020 at 6:24 AM. The results of this study can be useful for traffic managers dealing with post-disaster traffic management strategies.
