City of Columbia Bicyclist & Pedestrian Counts
2023-04-01 10:00 - 12:00, 2023-04-04 07:30 - 09:30, 2023-04-05 07:30 - 09:30, 2023-04-06 07:30 - 09:30, 2023-04-08 10:00 - 12:00 (America/New_York) | SC
The City of Columbia is seeking volunteers to help conduct our routine Pedestrian & Bicyclist Counts throughout Columbia. By counting pedestrians and bicyclists, volunteers help to ensure that all of the City’s residents count: transit riders, pedestrians, and bicyclists are often not accounted for in traffic studies – the same traffic studies used to make important decisions about our City’s landscape. In counting, volunteers are also taking part in a national effort: The National Bicycle and Pedestrian Documentation Project.
Sign up at https://bit.ly/2023SpringCounts; counts occur at locations throughout Columbia.
