How can we start collecting more data from the region? Opportunities Pedestrian-friendly downtowns Increasing number of facilities Challenges Limited staff time Equipment limitations Sites must be chosen carefully

3 MPO Bike/Ped Data Collection Equipment Available Pyro Box Compact Images: EcoCounter PROS Detects pedestrians/bicyclists up to 15 meters (about 49 feet) away Easy to install- just needs a post Designed for installation in urban areas Long battery life (10 years) Can be combined with the tube counter to differentiate between bicyclists and pedestrians CONS Cannot differentiate between pedestrians, bicyclists, deer, etc. Needs a gap (albeit a small one) between people for individual detections- may not count people walking side-by-side

4 Pneumatic Tubes Image: EcoCounter PROS Long battery life Can be combined with the Pyro Counter to differentiate between pedestrians and bicyclists Does not count pedestrians CONS Requires a segregated facility (bike lane, shoulder, greenway) or will count cars as well More difficult to install & uninstall Few potential destinations in the region

5 Facility Count Plan 1. Make a seasonal calendar for recurring and peak counts a. 13 week cycles b. Helps develop seasonal facility trends 2. Train local government staff to install counters a. Avoids unwanted time burdens on any one agency b. Preserve time for the MPO to take counts on seasonally-important destinations or TIP projects 3. Priority locations for Pyro Counter Installation (dependent on local staff involvement) a. Geographic Equity (locations in Buncombe, Haywood, Henderson, and Madison Counties) b. Focus on towns without data

6 4. Preliminary List of Priority Locations Buncombe County-Recommended locations for targeted manual and automated paired bicycle and pedestrian counts inside the City of Asheville: Asheville: French Broad River Greenway in Carrier Park Asheville: East Chestnut Street between Merrimon Avenue and Broadway, close to Trader Joe s/harris Teeter Asheville: Lexington Avenue at Walnut Street (*this might be a pedestrian-only count) Asheville: Haywood Road at Vermont Avenue including pedestrian counts on the sidewalk by the West End Bakery Asheville: Clingman Avenue Roundabout at Roberts Street (*install bicycle counter north-east of the roundabout) Asheville: WT Weaver Boulevard at Broadway Street (*consider transition from greenway to on-road when installing bicycle counter) Buncombe County-Recommended additional automated count locations. Asheville: Craven Street at Emma Road near Craven Street Bridge (future bicycle improvements planned, near New Belgium future site) Black Mountain: Flat Creek Greenway Black Mountain: Downtown location on NC 9 north of US 70 Montreat: In proximity to Montreat College, location TBD Swannanoa: Warren Wilson Rd/Bee Tree Road at Upper College Drive on Warren Wilson College Campus Weaverville: Walking Path at Lake Louise Weaverville: Main Street near Well Bred Bakery Haywood County Canton: Main Street (location TBD) Waynesville: Reems Creek Greenway near Waynesville Rec Center Waynesville: North Main St at US 276 (*location at North Main Street and Church Street, one block east of US 276 recommended in the LRTP) Waynesville/Lake Junaluska: Lakeshore Drive Henderson County Fletcher: Cane Creek Greenway at Fletcher Community Park Fletcher: US 25 Hendersonville Rd at Fanning Bridge Rd (*US 25 at Cane Creek Road, three blocks north, recommended in the LRTP) Flat Rock: Bike Counts on West Blue Ridge Road at NC 225; pedestrian counts on NC 225 Greenville Highway near Little River Road/Town Hall Hendersonville: Oklawaha Greenway just north of 7 th Ave Hendersonville: Main Street in Downtown Hendersonville*

7 Madison County (Marshall location in partnership with Land-of-Sky RPO staff and Community Transformation Grant partners) Marshall: Main Street at Bailesy Branch Rd in front of Zuma s coffee shop(*lrtp 2035 recommended a count at Main Street and Bridge Street, one block further east) Mars Hill: North Main Street and College Street near Mars Hill College* Transylvania County (in partnership with Land-of-Sky RPO staff and Brevard staff) Brevard: US 64 Broad Street and US 276 East Main Street* Brevard: Brevard Bike Path at US 64 Hendersonville Hwy and US 276 Pisgah Hwy near Lowe s and The Hub Bicycle Store Brevard: Brevard Bike Path at US 64 and Osborne Rd (near Blue Ridge Community College Transylvania County Campus) 5. Priority locations for Pneumatic Tube Counter a. Towns interested in combining tube & pyro counters for bike & pedestrian counts b. Bike Lanes c. Greenways 6. Next Steps a. Solicit participation from local governments b. Publish a formal schedule for data collection c. Regional Volunteer Bike/Ped Counts

8 Reed Creek Greenway Automated Count Time Period: Monday, September 15, :10 P.M. Tuesday, September 23, :10 P.M. Location: Reed Creek Greenway, north of Cauble Street Equipment: EcoCounter Pyro Counter The Pyro Counter is able to count bicyclists, pedestrians, skateboarders, rollerbladers, or anyone who passes within approximately 16 feet of the equipment. However, the device is unable to differentiate between the different users and simply counts them as general users. Possible sources of error include facility-users walking side-by-side or very close to each other; this is likely to include people walking or running side-by-side, children being held by a parent or walking along side of them, or dense groups of users. It is unclear how many users are likely to have been missed due to these circumstances and there has been no effort to make up for this likely discrepancy. Results Total Users 2775 Users/Hour Peak 24-Hour Usage 372 Peak Day Monday, September 22 Peak 2-Hour Period 180 Peak 2-Hour Day & Time 5:00-7:00 P.M. Thursday, September 18

9 Patterns of Use The following chart illustrates the average use of the Reed Creek Greenway by hour. This includes both weekday and weekend data and has greater weekday representation. The second chart illustrates the different pattern of usage between the weekday and weekend. Notes Weather was generally pleasant throughout the count- no heavy rains, no excessive heat, no excessive cold.

10 Workgroup Status Does the Complete Streets Workgroup want to change its composition and mission to better incorporate all facets of regional bicycle and pedestrian concerns?
