During the 29th Olympic Games, the Organizing Committee proposed and applied a series of traffic control measures. This paper first introduces the traffic control measures, and then analyzes their effects on road traffic structure and volume. It resulted that the ratio of non-motorized vehicles and buses are directly proportional to the intensity of traffic control, while the traffic volume and V/C ratio are inversely proportional to it. The survey data indicated that with the launch of the traffic control measures, the ratio of passenger cars on expressway declined by 15.68% while that of buses inclined by 2.85% in AM peak. The vehicle volume of expressway, arterial road, secondary road, and branch road declined by 18.84%, 22.13%, 38.5%, and 24.63%, respectively by lane, while the V/C ratio decreased by 59.09%, 20.00%, 68.75%, and 6.25%, respectively, in AM peak.
