Katie Counts the morning bike and pedestrian traffic at Mawson Place
Another of our monthly bike and pedestrian days occurred on Tuesday 1st December with 4 locations around Hobart recording solid numbers of bicycle and pedestrian traffic. Numbers will be posted up soon. We are currently short of volunteers so if you feel you’d like to contribute to a continuing record of data on how many people are getting about using active modes of transport please shoot an email to healthytransporthobart@yahoo.com.au.

The standard count sheet used to record all pedestrian and bicycle movements at different intersections around the city
The counting experience is an exceptional way to enjoy a couple of hours in the morning or afternoon and watch the world go by with a purpose. Not only do your get to gawk at all the fashionable cyclists and pedestrians parading through intersections, you increase your hand eye co-ordination skills.

Not many parents would let a young fella like this out on his own to traverse our car dominated intersections

One of the advanced stop boxes for bikes provided a good count spot
