In the present study, an experimental setup was made to measure the aerodynamic characteristics of vehicles on the bridge for different cases in a wind tunnel considering the aerodynamic interference. The influence of the wind turbulence, the vehicle interference, and the distance of vehicle from the windward edge of the deck on the aerodynamic coefficients of vehicles were investigated based on the experimental results. The measured results showed that the wind turbulence, the vehicle interference, and the vehicle distance from the windward edge significantly affected the aerodynamic coefficients of vehicles.
