For each road incident important factors like location, capacity reduction, traffic management, duration of road incidents and amount of traffic should be defined. All performer operations and effects of incidents affect the capacity of the road, average speed, time loss, vehicle queues and traffic jams. In the article road incidents were divided into planned and unexpected. Statistical analysis prepared using the database of traffic events which occurred on highways and expressways in Pomeranian Voivodeship is presented considering location of incidents on each road, frequency and duration of incidents and duration of rescue operation. Furthermore, the cases used to calibrate the model are characterised. Subsequently, the method of estimation of time loss resulting from incidents is presented. Within the methodology, mathematical and simulation models are distinguished. The tools for dynamic traffic modelling are also presented. In the last part of the article, the method of calculation value of time loss is presented. © 2018 The Authors, published by EDP Sciences.
