Traffic-related particulate matter (PM) plays an important role in urban air pollution. However, sources of urban pollution are difficult to distinguish. This study utilises a mobile particle concentrator platform and statistical tools to investigate factors affecting roadway ambient coarse particle (PM10–2.5) and fine particle (PM2.5–0.2) concentrations in greater Boston, USA. Positive matrix factorization (PMF) identified six PM10–2.5 sources (exhaust, road salt, brake wear, regional pollution, road dust resuspension and tyre-road abrasion) and seven fine particle sources. The seven PM2.5–0.2 sources include the six PM10–2.5 sources and a source rich in Cr and Ni. Non- exhaust traffic-related sources together accounted for 65.6% and 29.1% of the PM10–2.5 and PM2.5–0.2 mass, respectively. While the respective contributions of exhaust sources were 10.4% and 20.7%. The biggest non-exhaust contributor in the PM10–2.5 was road dust resuspension, accounting for 29.6%, while for the PM2.5–0.2, the biggest non-exhaust source was road-tyre abrasion, accounting for 12.3%. We used stepwise general additive models (sGAMs) and found statistically significant (p < 0.05) effects of temperature, number of vehicles and rush hour periods on exhaust, brake wear, road dust resuspension and road-tyre abrasion with relative importance between 19.1 and 62.2%, 12.5–42.1% and 4.4–42.2% of the sGAM model's explained variability. Speed limit and road type were also important factors for exhaust, road-tyre and brake wear sources. Meteorological variables of wind speed and relative humidity were significantly associated with both coarse and fine road dust resuspension and had a combined relative importance of 38% and 48%. The quantifying results of the factors that influence traffic-related sources can offer key insights to policies aiming to improve near-road air quality. Display omitted •Sources of PM10–2.5 and PM2.5–0.2 were investigated in 90 near-road environments.•Coarse and fine non-exhaust traffic-related sources combined accounted 65.6% and 29.1% respectively.•Stepwise GAM identified ambient and road factors affecting coarse and fine non-exhaust sources.•Temperature, vehicle number and rush-hours influenced all non-exhaust sources.•Road dust resuspension & road-tyre abrasion were influenced by wind speed, relative humidity and vehicle speed.
