The Washington State Department of Transportation is looking for 400 volunteers to help count the number of people who ride bicycles or walk.
In 2014, more than 72,000 bicyclists and pedestrians were counted by volunteers in communities across Washington.
WSDOT and the Cascade Bicycle Club are enlisting volunteers and organizations like FeetFirst, Washington Bikes and Futurewise to help count Tuesday, Sept. 29, through Thursday, Oct. 1.
The surveys will cover 50 cities throughout the state. The data collected helps WSDOT improve bicycling and walking policies, projects, and funding.
If you’re interested, contact the Cascade Bicycle Club at 503-805-1064.
