Abstract: We analyze the traffic data observed at the upper stream of a tunnel (Nihonzaka Tunnel) on Tomei Expressway linking Nagoya with Tokyo. We observe the fundamental properties of the traffic flow including temporal sequences and statistical properties. We also observe the reverse-lane usage in which the flow on the fast lane exceeds the one on the slow lane.
