Abstract:The study recommends that VDOT’s Transportation and Mobility Planning Division, with assistance from the Virginia Transportation Research Council, establish a pilot nonmotorized count program in one or more VDOT districts. Recommended program elements include purchasing and installing count equipment; identifying opportunities for training and outreach; and working with VDOT’s Traffic Engineering Division to identify an acceptable data storage mechanism. The study also recommends that the Virginia Transportation Research Council assist in evaluating the pilot program and documenting lessons learned. Providing count data that could be of use to localities and VDOT as described in this report and incrementally expanding VDOT’s capabilities in this area will inform future actions including maximizing the value of efforts (by using compatible data formats and methodologies), simplifying data analysis and use, and facilitating reporting of such data to the federal data repository.
