Estimating Bicycling and Walking for Planning and Project Development: A Guidebook
NCHRP Report 770
Source: National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP)
This guidebook is designed to help transportation and community planners account more effectively for pedestrian and bicycle activity (demand) in plans and projects. As interest in promoting walking and bicycling has increased, so too has the awareness that the tools and data to support good planning and decision-making for these modes are very limiting. This guidebook is the product of NCHRP project 08-78, which was specifically undertaken to address these deficiencies with more robust tools and methods so as to meet the needs of a growing and diversified body of practitioners and planning applications.
