FDOT Central Office (under Trenda McPherson) is currently studying bike/ped data collection with the goal of recommending a statewide counting program.
The Palm Beach MPO has developed a map of complete streets corridors to prioritize investments. The MPO is currently building on the complete streets efforts by collecting bicycle and pedestrian counts at specific locations, prior to and after constructing a complete streets project. These counts will be conducted with tubes and sensors to measure bicycle and pedestrian traffic, respectively.
The Palm Beach MPO completed a bicycle and pedestrian safety study. The Palm Beach MPO Governing Board approved this study in February 2017. (Link to Bike/Ped safety study) [http://www.palmbeachmpo.org/plans/ped-bike-safety-study]
