Traffic volume
[edit]D407 traffic is not counted directly, howeverHrvatske ceste,operator of the road reports number of vehicles using ferry service flying from Zadar port, accessed by the D407 road, thereby allowing the D407 traffic volume to be deduced.[4]Substantial variations between annual (AADT) and summer (ASDT) traffic volumes are attributed to the fact that the road serves as a connection carrying substantial tourist traffic to Zadar area islands, while the D8 state road provides quick access toA1 motorwayZadar 1 and Zadar 2 interchanges, either directly, or viaD424 state road.[5]
