Employing vehicle telematics data, this study investigates the transport environment across urban and major road networks during a two-week period encompassing Easter holidays, considered as case study. The analysis spans four distinct years: 2016, 2018, 2021, 2022. Geospatial Temporal Mapping captured dependencies of speed, acceleration, vehicle-specific power (VSP), emission factors (EFs) for air pollutants (CO2 NOx) on studied calendar period. results showed that holiday, median speeds exceeded annual averages by roughly 5%, indicating clear deviation from regular traffic patterns. This was particularly stark 2021 lockdown, with significant drop in presence, leading to less congestion thus higher acceleration. emissions analyses revealed individual cars emit levels CO2 NOx Easter. Specifically, values EF were 9% 11% than norm. When combined occupancy demonstrate holidays 2022 had variable impact emissions, reductions roads weekday rush hours (15–25%) but slight increases weekend periods.
