Abstract
Exponential smoothing is a popular technique used to analyze and forecast trends in various industries such as road transportation and passenger transportation. This method is used to calculate weighted averages using historical data and adjust forecasts based on recent trends. In the Turkish context, forecasting transportation demands using exponential smoothing provides valuable information for transportation planning and resource allocation. The increasing number of vehicles has caused many negative environmental consequences. This study analyzed ten years of data on road freight and passenger transportation on a regional scale in order to make future predictions. In the study, solution suggestions are presented based on the findings and the policies that should be implemented to solve the problem are evaluated.
