UC Berkeley SafeTREC is hosting a training webinar for ATP grant recipients to learn how to use the CAT Data Portal to meet their count data reporting requirements. We will review the entire workflow from loading count data in the portal, retrieving AADPT and AADPT estimates, and entering those values in CalSMART.

Intersections are critical points of access to local and regional destinations for all roadway users. However, intersections
are also planned points of potential conflict between road users. For this reason, intersection safety is critical to the
overall safety of the transportation system. This is especially true when considering pedestrians and bicyclists, users
who are typically more vulnerable compared to their counterparts traveling in motor vehicles. The share of bicyclist
and pedestrian fatalities and serious injuries that occur at intersections is notable. From 2015 to 2019, an estimated
57 percent of bicyclist and 39 percent of pedestrian fatalities and incapacitating injuries in the U.S. occurred at
intersections or were intersection-related.

A Complete Street is safe and feels safe for everyone using the street (including pedestrians, bicyclists, public transportation users, children, older individuals, individuals with disabilities, motorists, and freight vehicles). In addition to safety and equity, Complete Streets applications may improve economic vitality. Operations addresses the intentional strategies, tools, and real-time actions needed for the roadway system to serve all road users safely and reliably as transportation agencies plan, invest in, design, construct, and maintain the system. Operations can be key considerations toward achieving safety and equity goals in a sustainable way. Operations strategies that improve mobility and traffic flow in a Complete Streets project may also enhance safety.

The Small Town and Rural Multimodal Networks report is a resource and idea book intended to help small towns and rural communities support safe, accessible, comfortable, and active travel for people of all ages and abilities. It provides a bridge between existing guidance on bicycle and pedestrian design and rural practice, encourage innovation in the development of safe and appealing networks for bicycling and walking in small towns and rural areas, and show examples of peer communities and project implementation that is appropriate for rural communities.

How to Implement Cycling Infrastructure outlines the steps from initial site selection, to designing, planning, and implementing cycling infrastructure with a focus on community-driven designs that ensure the safety and comfort of all. The handbook serves as a global resource, and features case studies from the 10 selected BICI cities and other inspiring global best practices, focusing on the full process of implementing cycling infrastructure. It also provides resources and frameworks to help cities overcome the most common challenges and build support where they face significant pushback.
POSTPONED. A new date will be announced shortly.
Join the Active Transportation Resource Center for an overview of key changes in the recently released (January 18, 2026) CA MUTCD 2026. Learn what’s new, why it matters, compliance of existing devices, target compliance dates and how agencies can bring non-compliant devices on existing roadways into compliance with CA MUTCD 2026.

Counts+ are optional performance metrics that consider how to make the program’s performance metrics more meaningful, while at the same time keeping the burden of work low for grant recipients. The metrics will help to measure project impacts related to the Active Transportation Program’s overall goals of improving safety, public health, equity, benefit to disadvantaged communities, greenhouse gas reduction and climate readiness, economic impact, and quality of life.

The California Active Transportation Data Portal (CAT Data Portal) was developed to collect, store, and visualize bicyclist, pedestrian, wheelchair, and other micromobility device volume counts for infrastructure and planning projects across California. This data portal is expected to serve the following purposes:
- Provide a standardized methodology for pre- and post-counts required by the Active Transportation Program (ATP)
- Store data for agencies to use in the development of seasonal adjustment factors for short-duration counts, and other modal analysis
- Provide an open data set for researchers interested in analyzing trends in bicycle and pedestrian trips and mode shift
- Support active transportation planning by providing a “one-stop-shop” of data commonly used in active transportation planning

The 3rd Edition is a step-by-step playbook for jurisdictions of all sizes that are building, updating, or expanding their bike parking programs. With new insights on equity and micromobility as well as updated guidance on site layout, materials, and supporting policies, this resource will give communities the tools to create more accessible, future-ready infrastructure.
