Abstract:Collecting and reporting Nonmotorized travel is growing in importance due to the significant efforts being made to encourage investment and use of more active modes of transportation (e.g., walking, biking, scootering, battery-powered devices). It is, therefore, important to be able to track changes in walking, biking, scootering, etc. that result from changes in public attitudes and land use, the implementation of new policies, and the construction of new facilities. Two types of records are needed for submitting Nonmotorized data to FHWA’s TMAS system. Nonmotorized Station Record – Section 7.9. Nonmotorized Count Record – Section 7.10. The Station Record is needed for reporting all Nonmotorized data to FHWA. The Station Record is composed of data fields, which provide information related to where the monitored site is located and other relevant attributes that can be used in conjunction with the Count Record for specific data analysis. If a Nonmotorized Station Record is omitted, any succeeding Count Records containing Nonmotorized data will not be processed in TMAS. The TMAS software retains all approved Station Records as of December 31st of each year. FHWA recommends that a yearly review of all Station Record fields be conducted to ensure the records are current and accurately reflect what is in the field. A Station Record file is a text file often designated by the .txt file extension. Before uploading the file to TMAS, the file extension should be renamed to .snm where snm stands for station non-motorized.
