Container trailer traffic in road transport has increased with use of maritime containers in international trade. Smoothing large truck traffic, such as container trailers, is necessary in order to strengthen the nation’s international competitiveness, but their movement has not been examined yet. Using data from electronically processed traffic applications of large vehicles, this study has simulated their nationwide routes, particularly for international maritime container trailers, in order to analyze travel conditions and route-choice behavior. We have identified locations with high traffic of international maritime containers and have analyzed the effects of road structure on the route-choice behavior of container trailers. A route-choice model to maximize the overlap ratio of routes on applications and estimated routes was then established using the route-choice model for international maritime container trailers. Finally, this study has examined the effects of road measures such as development of the road network and improvement of intersections.
