Transportation Data and Analytics /Traffic Information / Statewide Non-Motorized Traffic Monitoring Program Statewide Non-Motorized Traffic Monitoring Program
The Florida Department of Transportation Office of Transportation Data and Analytics (TDA) began the development of a Non-Motorized Traffic Counting Program in May 2018 with a need to provide bicycle and pedestrian (Non-Motorized) volume and supporting statistics and information to new and existing data customers. The intent of developing the non-motorized data program is similar to motorized traffic volume data in that non-motorized data can be used for all the same types of analyses such as safety studies, planning and programming FDOT facilities, pavement and trail maintenance, etc.
To collect statistically valid bicycle and pedestrian (non-motorized) traffic volume data so that traffic volume statistics can be calculated and published annually.
The Statewide Data Repository will serve as the data warehouse for all non-motorized data, both FDOT obtained and non-FDOT obtained. Any statewide agency currently involved in collecting non-motorized data is welcome to voluntarily submit their data to be included in the statewide data repository. In order for data to be submitted to FHWA, it must be formatted to the specific standards found in the FHWA Traffic Monitoring Guide (TMG).Do you have non-motorized data to share with FDOT?Please contact Eric.Katz@dot.state.fl.us for more information.Resources:
Outreach is an ongoing dynamic process of keeping the state and other agency staff informed as to the program status, as well as discovering opportunities to collaborate with other entities to maximize non-motorized traffic monitoring data collection resources. See numerous resources below.

The Short-Term program completed its first round of statewide deployments in February 2021. Coordination with local agencies regarding where future short-term count deployments will occur will continue. Short-term count data collection follows national guidelines so the data collected can be submitted to FHWA. Any local agency that wants to participate in the loaner program must first have a signed Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between FDOT and the partnering agency. See MOA template below.
The Continuous Count program completed its first round of statewide continuous count installations in December 2020. FDOT TDA will continue to coordinate with FDOT Districts and local agencies regarding the next round of installations. Continuous Count data collection follows national guidelines so the data collected can be submitted to FHWA. See resources below.
