The MetroCount Bike Data Display is Here!
After years of R&D determining the best way for you to share the data you collect with the public, we have launched the RidePod QR! Installed at the side, this cost-effective and energy-efficient totem does not require any power and gives access to public data to any passerby with a smartphone.

Bike Traffic Data in the Borough of Ealing
Ealing Council is a recognised regional leader in active transport and won the Transport Authority of the Year title at the National Transport Awards 2015. The ongoing community engagement and consistent cycle data collection have enabled Ealing to develop award-winning cycling infrastructure. Implementing programs such as the ‘Mini-Holland‘ project and Dr Bike, the Council has significantly increased cycling participation.
Chile: Cycling infrastructure and bike monitoring
Our partners in Chile, the Grupo DPS have undertaken a large bike monitoring project in the Aysén Region, installing 17 permanent RidePod® BP bike counters. Founded in 2014, Groupo DPS, have a team of dedicated traffic engineers managing ongoing projects in the southern (Coyhaique), central (Santiago, Rancagua) and the northern (Copiapo, Calama) regions of the country. We contacted Pablo Villarroel (Project Manager) to learn more about monitoring bikes in Chile.
The RidePod BP has been trouble-free, reliable, and accurate. It has worked through heat, heavy rain, and cold, and I see no reason why it would not operate properly in snowy conditions and handle snow-clearing maintenance.
Our understanding of cycling numbers in Ealing has improved both in accuracy and reliability due to our RidePod® BP counters.
