Volunteers Needed for Annual Bicyclist and Pedestrian Counts

The City of Minneapolis and Hennepin County are seeking volunteers to help with the Annual Bicyclist and Pedestrian Count. Volunteers are needed to count the number of bicyclists and pedestrians at several locations, Sept. 11-13, 4-6 pm.

Bicyclist and pedestrian counts are conducted to understand the impact of non-motorized traffic on streets, sidewalks, and trails, and to plan and build for bicyclists and pedestrians, while tracking what’s successful and what should be done differently. Info and registration in Minneapolis: Chris Kartheiser at Chris.Kartheiser@minneapolismn.gov or 612-673-2544. Outside of Minneapolis: Emily Kettell at Emily.kettell@hennepin.us or 612-543-1963.
