The knowledge of road traffic parameters is of crucial importance to ensure state-of-the-art traffic services either in public or private transport.

The available information, however, arrive from inhomogeneous sensor systems. Therefore, a data fusion methodology is proposed based on Switching Kalman Filter. The concept enables efficient travel time estimation for urban road traffic network. On the other hand, the method may contribute to a better macroscopic traffic modelling.
