That is just excellent!  How much does an installation cost?

Subject: [Bikies] Madison Installs First Visual Electronic Bicycle Counter

 

Madison Traffic Engineering installed its first visual electronic bicycle
counter on Thursday, October 9th.  The counter, called the Eco-Totem by
manufacturer Eco-Counter, is located on the Southwest Path just east of
Monroe Street.  The counter tallies bicyclists that pass over loops embedded
in the path.  There are two counts displayed on the Eco-Totem.  Near the top
is the count for the day.  Below this a thermometer type display that shows
the number of bicyclists that have passed by cumulatively for the year.  

 

"We already count bicyclists at several locations in the city," said David
Dryer, City Traffic Engineer.  "The Eco-Totem will supplement our data
collection program while also being visible to path users and drivers on the
street--it will give people a reminder of how many bicyclists there are in
Madison and the need to watch for cyclists on all City streets."  The
Southwest Path through the campus is area is one of the busiest paths in the
city.
