In recent years, some traffic information prediction methods have been proposed to provide the precise information of travel time, vehicle speed, and traffic flow for highways. However, big errors may be obtained by these methods for urban roads or the alternative roads of highways. Therefore, this study proposes a travel time prediction method based on convolutional neural networks to extract important factors for the improvement of traffic information prediction. In practical experimental environments, the travel time records of No. 5 Highway and the alternative roads of its were collected and used to evaluate the proposed method. The results showed that the mean absolute percentage error of the proposed method was about 5.69 proposed method based on deep learning techniques can improve the accuracy of travel time prediction.
