Innovative Data Collection for Pedestrians, Bicycles, and Other Non-Motor Vehicle Modes

摘要

The transportation community has long recognized the need for improving pedestrian and bicycle volume counts. The collection of nonmotorized travel data under a consistent, systematic methodology is a priority for improving research, planning, and policy making for pedestrian and bicycle travel. Volume data are needed for safety and risk assessments, new infrastructure evaluations, travel model inputs, and estimations of miles of travel.
