Bicycle counts are used to track the number of cyclists at key intersections. This is used to understand year-to-year changes in cycling as policy and infrastructure changes.

This will be LA's first, and we plan to do it right while having a good time.
As we are counting bicycles, we will also be counting pedestrians.
