PRESS RELEASE
2nd Annual Bicyclist and Pedestrian Count Event Scheduled

September 7, 2012 (Moscow, Idaho) - The City of Moscow is coordinating the second annual iCount event, a bicycle and pedestrian count of traveling bicyclist and pedestrians in the City of Moscow, to occur on September 13 from 7 - 9 a.m. and 4 - 6 p.m. Volunteers are needed to assist with the iCount project at one of 20 locations throughout Moscow. For more information or to register, please visit the iCount webpage at http://www.ci.moscow.id.us/projects/icount.aspx.

iCount is one part of the City of Moscow's effort to collect travel data for bicyclists and pedestrians in Moscow to provide information for the City of Moscow's Moscow on the Move, multimodal transportation plan.  This event is a follow up to the first bicyclist and pedestrian count that was coordinated in 2011 by the City of Moscow's Active Living Task Force (ALTF).  The ALTF was formed to address public health concerns associated with sedentary lifestyles by providing people with healthful alternatives through community design that supports active living.

If you are interested in joining the iCount event or if you have any questions, please call Jen Pfiffner at 208.883.7123 or email your questions or comments to icount at ci.moscow.id.us<mailto:icount at ci.moscow.id.us>.
