This paper will focus on analysing the air quality on a frequently congested road section in the vicinity of Timisoara, Romania. The placement of the measurement equipment will be made next to a public transport station measuring the extent of different pollutants which affect the well-being of passengers waiting in these stations. The traffic congestion is present due to the unloading from the highway, reduced capacity of only a one lane road and because of the high amount of industrial area workplaces. The results presented will be part of the PhD thesis of the main author.
