Bike and pedestrian trip counters have been installed at specific locations along the Elizabeth River Trail and elsewhere on Norfolk’s bike network to accurately count pedestrian and cyclist use along the trail and bike network. This counter system combines the passive infrared sensor and an inductive loop sensor; an intelligent subsystem analyzes the signal from both sensors in order to count and classify each user. This dataset comprises data from two types of counters – Eco Counter and Roadsys. The Eco Counter data begins in April 2019 and is updated weekly. The Roadsys data begins in April 2021 and is updated quarterly.

Please note: The counters at the following locations are currently offline, making data from these counters temporarily unavailable: Weyanoke Footbridge, Park Ave/Claiborne Ave (ERT), ERT Bridge/Lamberts Point, and E. Ocean View Avenue. We are working to correct this issue as quickly as possible.
