Due to restrictions imposed by a number of legal agreements dealing with the 407 ETR, only monthly statistics on Average Workday Traffic, Average Daily Traffic and Total Vehicle Kilometres Travelled can be released. More detailed statistics on the 407 ETR are released quarterly.

Similarly, traffic data for Warnow Tunnel, Vasco da Gama and 25th April Bridge is restricted to Average Daily Traffic (ADT) for the month and traffic data for Ausol I, Ausol II and Autema is restricted to Equivalent Average Daily Traffic (EADT) for the month.

EADT is calculated by adjusting the Average Daily Traffic (ADT) data for the length of each trip (relative to the length of the entire road) and the tolling class of each vehicle (relative to the toll charged for a light vehicle).
