description: The urban area of Madrid (Spain), as in many  other cities worldwide, is characterized by poor  ambient air quality. Previous studies in the area have  pointed out traffic as the main source of fine  particles, while dust resuspension was found to be  responsible for elevated levels of coarse particles (Querol et al, 2004). Street washing is one of the  methods that might reduce the dust resuspension. The  aim of this study was to quantify the contribution of  road dust to particulate matter and evaluate the  effects of street washing on the strength of  resuspension
