Active Transportation Data Working Group (AT+DWG)

Welcome to the Active Transportation Data Working Group website!

Good news! A new and independent group to support bicycle and pedestrian data has forming! While "ACP70(2) Bicycle and Pedestrian Data Joint Subcommittee" can no longer exist, because the Transportation Research Board (TRB) no longer has subcommittees, the work of supporting bicycle and pedestrian data must continue. Would you like to join us?

Now is an excellent time to join this new group so we can continue to hold Conversations with Colleagues and chart a new path into the future to support active transportation data including pedestrian, bicycle, micromobility, and accessibility data. We are now the Active Transportation+ Data Working Group (AT+DWG). Join us for future Conversations with Colleagues and quarterly meetings. Our next meeting will be Tuesday, February 17, 2025 at 2PM Eastern.

Upcoming Activities

Next Quarterly Meeting

On Tuesday, February 17, 2025 at 2PM Eastern (11AM Pacific) we will hold our third meeting as an independent group, where we plan to hold elections and approve our mission statement and goals at this meeting.

Conversations with Colleagues

Conversations with Colleagues is a series of meetings where we highlight topics of interest to the pedestrian and bicycle data community. We are continuing this series in our new independent form. Topics are still being developed but below is our schedule for 2026:

March 10, 2026 - Count Data topic
June 9, 2026 - Infrastructure topic
September 15, 2026 - TBA
December 8, 2026 - TBA

If you have topic ideas or know of interesting project or study for a future meeting, please contact the CWC organizing team - Nathan Hicks (Nathan.Hicks1@hdrinc.com), Tony Hull (tony@civilstreet.com) or Will Rogers (wrogers@gnrc.org).

History

In June 2025, TRB dissolved all committees, stopped supporting subcommittees, and reformed its committee structure. Prior to this (through May 2025), there was a group called the Bicycle and Pedestrian Data Joint Subcommittee ACP70(2) which was a TRB Subcommittee supporting and serving the needs of our six parent TRB standing committees: ACP70 Highway Traffic Monitoring Committee (lead), AED10 Statewide/National Transportation Data and Information Systems Committee, AED20 Urban Transportation Data and Information Systems, AEP25 Travel Survey Methods Committee, ACH10 Pedestrian Committee, and ACH20 Bicycle Transportation Committee. We also supported and coordinated with ACP25 Traffic Signal Systems Committee, ACS20(4) Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Analysis Subcommittee, and the City Transportation Issues Coordinating Council. The organization of a National Bicycle and Pedestrian Data Subcommittee was formalized in July 2011 in response to the need for accessing, sharing, and integrating national bicycle and pedestrian information. This subcommittee was focused on non-motorized counting technologies, collection methodologies, and associated data management activities.
