Active Transportation Monitoring Plan: Initial Evaluation of Bicycling and Walking Baseline & Planned Traffic Counts through 2015
Active Transportation in the form of bicycle and pedestrian traffic, is monitored for the Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos, TX region by the Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization using a variety of methods: automatic, manual and surveyed. This report compiles the region’s first systematic recording of active transportation in the region following methods recommended by a previous study with the Texas Transportation Institute. Annual monitoring of sites within the region representing a variety of land uses and infrastructure types is proposed. Finally, a loan agreement with local jurisdictions is offered to encourage monitoring of additional sites and times.
