In an effort to determine locations in Worcester for walking and biking infrastructure improvements, our project, in collaboration with WalkBike Worcester, recommends the adaptation of the Local Access Score tool to establish a sustainable bicycle and pedestrian counting program for the City of Worcester. Using interviews with decision makers, street-side observations, and research on cities with current counting programs, we developed methodologies and protocols for Worcester to use to carry out its own counting program of walkers and bikers.
