Land Transport New Zealand commissioned ViaStrada Ltd to undertake an international literature review of technologies for counting cycle traffic continuously (for several months or more) and to survey all local and regional councils and Transit New Zealand offices about their experience with various types of cycle traffic counting, including continuous, automatic and manual counts.
Section 2 of this report considers equipment for continuous counting of both off-road and on-road cycle traffic. The purpose of the survey (reported in Section 3) was to understand how much cycle counting is currently taking place in New Zealand and what methods are being used.
