Active Transportation Monitoring Program
CAMPO has initiated a bicycle and pedestrian usage program, with the Texas Transportation Institute and additional sponsorship by the City of Austin. Data was first recorded in Spring, 2010 in 15 locations throughout the region. Forthcoming data will track trends over time, allowing performance measurement similar to automotive and transit modes.
