Each year, the Fort Collins FC Moves Department performs a survey that generates data about the count of various non-car traffic at intersections across the city. This includes:

  • Bikes
  • Skateboards
  • Scooters
  • One Wheels

To improve precision about the counts, extra criteria was provided to break up counts by 2 categories:

  1. Were they e-powered? i.e. e-Bikes & e-Scooters
  2. Was a helmet worn?

These counts are recorded within four 30-minute intervals.

In 2021, I participated by counting at an intersection nearby our home. Our family often travel by bike / walk by this intersection, so I was happy to contribute in any way that could make it more safe.

  • Site ID: 13
  • Location: W Swallow Rd & Meadowlark Ave

Below are the counts we recorded in each 30 minute interval:

Improving bike safety in a community is about many 1% improvements. It was a fun project to participate in, the kids enjoyed it, and we look forward to participating next year.
