Late September is your time to make bicycling count in Spokane! Do you have two hours to spare for  better bicycling?

Cascade Bicycle Club and the Washington State Department of Transportation are back for year four of the Statewide Bicycle and Pedestrian Counts Project. This project helps measure the progress made  across the state in bicycling and walking and helps us advocate for new and improved trails and safe facilities.

We need your help to conduct bicycle and pedestrian counts in over 30 cities this year, up from only 16 when we first started a few years ago. Your help will support creating  more bike and pedestrian-friendly  communities.

To sign up for a volunteer shift, click here. If you have any issues with logging in or are unable to make your shift once you have signed up, please email me.

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.

We 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. In the meantime, feel free to read more about the project here, and download volunteer instructions and count forms here.
