Bicycle Count Analysis

Bicycle count data is a crucial component in making cities more bike-friendly and sustainable. At Traffic Data Count, we offer accurate and insightful bicycle count services tailored to your location and project scope.

What is Bicycle Count Analysis?

Bicycle count refers to the process of monitoring and recording the number of cyclists using a particular route, intersection, or area over a defined period. This data plays a critical role in urban mobility planning, cycling infrastructure design, and sustainability efforts.

Why Bicycle Count Matters

As cities promote sustainable and eco-friendly transportation, understanding bicycle traffic patterns becomes essential. Bicycle counts help in:

  • Planning safe cycling infrastructure such as bike lanes, crossings, and signage

  • Improving road safety by identifying conflict zones between vehicles and bicycles

  • Encouraging active transportation and reducing car dependency

  • Supporting funding and policy decisions for cycling programs

Our Bicycle Count Methods

At Traffic Data Count, we use a combination of manual and automated technologies to accurately measure cyclist activity:

  • Manual Counting through trained surveyors

  • Video Footage Analysis for retrospective data

  • Pneumatic Tubes, IR Sensors & Radar for continuous monitoring

  • Bluetooth/Wi-Fi Tracking for route mapping and travel behavior

Data Collected Includes:

  • Volume of cyclists per time period

  • Directional flow (inbound/outbound or turning movements)

  • Helmet usage (if manually observed)

  • Bicycle types (if applicable)

  • Seasonal and peak-hour variations

Pro Tip: Accurate survey data is key to better planning. Explore professional traffic and household data collection services at Traffic Data Count.
