Overview

AI-generated overview

Remote MCP server giving assistants access to Great Britain road traffic counts from the DfT, including count points and vehicle volumes.

What you can do
  • Look up DfT road traffic count points in Great Britain
  • Retrieve vehicles-per-day figures broken down by vehicle type
  • Access hourly traffic count data
  • Query traffic volumes for specific count locations
When to use it
Useful when you need official UK road traffic statistics — for example comparing traffic volumes at count points, checking vehicle mix by type, or looking at hourly patterns — without downloading and parsing DfT datasets yourself.
Requirements
A remote streamable HTTP endpoint; no local install. No authentication is required for the free daily allowance. An optional Authorization header with a bearer key, obtained from the provider's key-issuing endpoint, raises the allowance.
Before you install
The optional Authorization header carries a secret API key; keep it private. Usage beyond the free daily allowance requires a key, so heavy use depends on obtaining one. Data comes from a third-party service, so verify figures against official DfT sources before relying on them.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open UK Data: GB road traffic counts (DfT) in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/uk.co.reliness%2Fuk-roads-traffic/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
