The paper presents an evaluation of the properties of the vehicle detection system comprising the source of data of traffic flow for road traffic control in a city. The quality of traffic data determines the ability to reach optimal traffic control decisions. Errors of measuring traffic stream balancing locally at junctions and in the whole of the road traffic control system are chosen as evaluation criteria. The city traffic is modelled using a directed graph, with vertices being the measurement sites and with edges linking vertices having weights representing traffic flow values. The analysis of the results enables the determination of measurement sites inadequately mapping the road situation and allows proposing new sites to improve the system. The analysis is performed using real traffic data acquired from the Traffic Control Centre in Gliwice
