HATS Regional Active Transportation Plan

HATS staff, with support from Gibson Thomas Engineering and Simone Collins Landscape Architecture, is developing a Regional Active Transportation Plan covering Cumberland, Dauphin, and Perry Counties. The HATS Regional Active Transportation Plan will focus on both on- and off-road non-motorized transportation facilities that connect our region's residents and visitors with places to live, work, shop, and play.

We anticipate adoption of the Regional Active Transportation Plan in Spring 2024. Resources and updates will be available throughout the development of the plan at the link below.

Bicycle and Pedestrian Counts

TCRPC has recently expanded our bicycle and pedestrian data collection capabilities through the use of video counting equipment. In 2022, we collected multiple days of data on walkers and bikers at more than 40 locations across the region. A map of the locations analyzed is available here.

From 2015 to 2022, HATS staff organized and facilitated volunteer-lead bicycle and pedestrian counts at locations across the region. In total, over 250 counts were performed by our dedicated volunteers. Resources, including data collection and training materials, are available below. Thanks again to all our volunteers!
