Bike and pedestrian counters have been installed at six locations along the Elizabeth River Trail and at 15 locations along Norfolk’s existing bike lanes to accurately track pedestrian and cyclist use along the trail and bike network. This counter system combines the passive infrared sensor to count pedestrians on the adjacent sidewalk and an inductive loop sensor to detect bicycles in existing bike lanes. This dataset comprises data from two types of counters – Eco-Counter and Roadsys. The Eco-Counter data begins in April 2019 and is updated weekly. The Roadsys data begins in April 2021 and is updated quarterly.

Please note: The counters at the following location are currently offline, making up-to-date data from these counters temporarily unavailable:
- Weyanoke Footbridge – last date August 28, 2019

The Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is a multi-year plan for capital expenditures to replace, maintain, and expand the city’s infrastructure. The city uses the CIP to develop infrastructure and maintain the quality of life offered to residents and businesses. The capital budget supports non-recurring expenditures, such as the construction of buildings, acquisition of property, repairs, and improvements to roadways, building maintenance, and the efficient operation of the water, sewage, and storm water systems. Capital funding is limited to the cost of the project and may be expended over several fiscal years until the project is completed.

This dataset shows the projects that were approved to be included in the FY2024 adopted CIP. Each capital project included in the CIP is either approved for funding in FY2024 or included as a planned project in FY2025 through FY2028. The inclusion of a project beyond the current budget does not guarantee it will be funded in the future. This dataset will not be updated, however, a new dataset will be created each fiscal year for the new CIP.
