Pedestrian Counts
The Montgomery County Planning Department collects pedestrian volumes at intersections as part of the development review and the master planning process. A small (but growing) number of pedestrian counts can be found on the department’s intersection analysis application.
Walk Audit Toolkit
A pedestrian audit is an in-person effort by a group of people to assess pedestrian safety, accessibility and comfort in a given area. The Walk Audit Toolkit was created to help community members identify and build consensus on issues affecting pedestrians.
