Volunteers Needed to Count Bicyclists/Pedestrians
It's getting close to the annual bicycle and pedestrian counts that take place across Washington. This year, volunteers will count walkers and bikers between count Sept. 30 and Oct. 2.
During a three-day survey last year, volunteers counted nearly 66,000
bicyclists and pedestrians across Washington. As another survey approaches, WSDOT and the Cascade Bicycle Club will call on about 400 volunteers to tally the number of
people who ride a bike or walk to their destinations. Counts will be taken at assigned locations in nearly 40 cities throughout
the state.
Interested in volunteering?
Here's where to do so.
