2015 Bicycle & Pedestrian Counting

Thank you for helping us make Somerville a safer and more comfortable place to bike and walk! The data we collect will help us better understand where we walk and bike the most, as well as the impact of improvements we make year to year - and help us plan future improvements.

Please review the instructions and FAQs in this instruction guide before going to the website below to sign up. The City will also be hosting an optional training on 9/24 from 6 to 7 p.m. at the City Hall Annex, 50 Evergreen Ave., Somerville.
