Bike lane statistics for Burrard Bridge 2009-2010

This dataset comes from the Burrard Bridge Lane Reallocation Trial and provides a summary of the data collected between June 2009 and December 2010. Measuring Bicycles and PedestriansOn the Burrard Bridge, and at several other locations in the city, bicycles are counted using permanently installed detection equipment. Bicycles are counted using wire loops fixed to the bike lanes which detect the metal wheels passing over the loops. They are designed and built to ignore the effects of larger metal objects such as cars and trucks. We have checked and calibrated this equipment using counts done by staff on site. Pedestrian count data is collected in a similar manner. The pedestrian detectors respond to changes in heat rather than to metal. The count data was downloaded regularly and was updated monthly. We also have portable bike counting tools which utilize pneumatic hoses, like similar equipment used to count vehicles. These are used on bike routes throughout the city and have been used on Pacific Street to count cyclists in the protected bike lanes connecting to the Burrard Bridge. We have provided estimates of the number of cyclists who would have used the Burrard Bridge without the protected lanes. We have found that it is possible to estimate the number of cyclist on one bicycle route by measuring the cyclists using another route. The number of cyclist using a route on a given day is affected by season, weather, day of the week and other factors, but collectively the cyclists using one route appear to make their decisions in the same way as the cyclists using another route. We found that this lead to patterns of use that are very similar. In statistical terms, the usage patterns are strongly correlated. We have been using measurements of the Ontario Bike Route to estimate the number of cyclists who would have used the Burrard Bridge had we made no changes.

本数据集源自于布勒瑞德桥车道重新分配试验，并对2009年6月至2010年12月期间收集的数据进行了概要性整理。在布勒瑞德桥及其城市其他多个地点，通过永久性安装的检测设备对自行车和行人进行计数。自行车计数采用固定于自行车道上的金属线圈，该线圈能够检测金属轮子经过时的变化。这些设备的设计与建造旨在忽略如汽车和卡车等大型金属物体的干扰。我们已通过现场工作人员的计数对设备进行了检查和校准。行人计数数据也以类似方式收集。行人检测器对热量的变化而非金属的变化作出响应。计数数据定期下载，并每月更新。此外，我们还拥有便携式自行车计数工具，这些工具使用气胎软管，类似于用于车辆计数的类似设备。这些工具被用于城市各自行车道，并在太平洋街上用于计数连接至布勒瑞德桥的保护区自行车道上的骑自行车者。我们提供了没有保护区车道时可能使用布勒瑞德桥的自行车骑行者的估计数量。我们发现，通过测量另一条路线上的骑自行车者，可以估计出一条特定自行车道上的骑自行车者数量。特定一天使用某条路线的骑自行车者数量受季节、天气、星期几以及其他因素的影响，但使用同一条路线的骑自行车者集体似乎会以与其他路线的骑自行车者相同的方式进行决策。我们发现这导致了非常相似的使用模式。从统计学的角度来看，使用模式具有高度的关联性。我们一直使用安大略省自行车道的测量数据来估计，如果未进行任何更改，将有多少骑自行车者使用布勒瑞德桥。注意：目前布勒瑞德桥的最新月度统计数据仅以PDF格式提供。有关更多信息，请访问以下网站：温哥华骑行、如何收集隔离自行车道上的自行车流量。这是一个静态数据集，代表2009年6月至2010年12月期间收集的数据。
