I volunteer with the Culver City Bike Coalition.  We are conducting the bike and pedestrian count for the city of Culver City.

We need volunteers to help with data collection. We hope you can help us get the word out.

The Culver City Bicycle Coalition is looking for volunteers to help with the city of Culver City’s Bike and Pedestrian count.

The data collected goes to track Culver City’s progress on becoming a more bike- friendly community and to provide valuable information needed when applying for grants.

The actual task is to sit on a sidewalk next to an intersection for two hours, and count the number of bicycles and pedestrians crossing a certain point.

Not all bikes or pedestrians going through the intersection will need to be counted. Folks can bring a chair. Something to drink and a hat for shade are good ideas.

Our dates are Saturday from 12 noon to 2 o’clock and next Tuesday, May 19, from 7 to 9 a.m., and from 4 p.m. to 6.

We will have a training session for the volunteers this Wednesday in the evening.
