Help Tacoma track bicyclists and pedestrians in locations throughout the City by volunteering as an official bicycle and pedestrian counter September 27th-29th. Volunteers will be stationed at a trail or intersection during peak commute hours and asked to tally bicycles and pedestrians as they cross your path. We still have 16 shifts to fill and we need you! Date: You can choose September 27, 28, and/or 29 to conduct counts. Time: Count times are 7 to 9 am and 4 to 6 pm The bicycle and pedestrian count is part of an annual state-wide effort, coordinated by the Cascade Bicycle Club and the Washington State Department of Transportation. It is also part of a nationwide effort to begin obtaining data about the nation's pedestrian and bicycle travel. These counts are particularly important to the City of Tacoma as we begin to implement our Mobility Master Plan. This is the 4th year that the City of Tacoma has participated. Register as a volunteer and choose your shift times and locations at: http://www.wa-bike-ped-count.org/index.php Cascade Bicycle Club will follow-up with you to confirm your shift location and time, and to ensure you have all the materials you need to perform the counts. If you have any questions or registration issues, contact Tessa at the Cascade Bike Club at tessa.greegor@cascadebicycleclub.org<mailto:tessa.greegor@cascadebicycleclub.org> or 206-204-0913. Thank you for helping to make Tacoma a more pedestrian and bicycle friendly community!
