Bike&Ped Data Subcommittee - ACP70 (2)
Welcome to the Bicycle and Pedestrian Data Subcommittee Website!
Upcoming Activities
2024 Conversations with Colleagues Schedule:
Tuesday, March 12 - Research Highlights and Needs Statements 101 at 2PM Eastern
Weren't able to make it to TRB? Have lingering questions about the latest research findings? This Conversations with Colleagues session will feature several papers on bike and ped data first presented at the TRB 2024 Annual Conference. In addition to recapping our research needs identified in our TRB Workshop on data fusion, several researchers will provide brief summaries of their work and discuss its implications for our field. Participants will have opportunities to discuss issues in implementing findings from this research. There will also be a brief portion of the session that is dedicated to talking about the research needs statement and how to begin the process.

Subcommittee Goals
A principal goal of this subcommittee is to develop standardized national data methods and structures that allow for accessibility, scalability, and the integration of non-motorized datasets which guide and support traffic management, travel demand modeling, safety studies, and general non-motorized planning and research efforts. For more information on the work and goals of the subcommittee, visit our 3-Year Strategic Plan.
History and Purpose
The Bicycle and Pedestrian Data Joint Subcommittee ACP70(2) is a Transportation Research Board (TRB) Subcommittee supporting and serving the needs of our three parent TRB standing committees: ACP70 Highway Traffic Monitoring Committee (lead), ACH20 Bicycle Transportation Committee, and ACH10 Pedestrian Committee. We also support and coordinate with ACP25 Traffic Signal Systems Committee, AED10 Statewide/National Transportation Data and Information Systems Committee, AED20 Urban Transportation Data and Information Systems, AEP25 Travel Survey Methods Committee, and 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 is focused on non-motorized counting technologies, collection methodologies, and associated data management activities.
