In case you missed it: our Big #BackyardBikeCount was a citizen-science exercise that we got up and running during L4 lockdown, ultimately tracking 22,000+ walk/bike/drive movements in Auckland's neighbourhoods, to provide handy data for future planning!πhttps://t.co/5OCDx6TA9B
"During lockdown AT observed large numbers of people riding on quietened streets, which shows people want to walk & ride when streets are made safe for them to do so."
Great to see AT's informal observations backing up our official #BackyardBikeCount!ππ https://t.co/3GQAIVT0p1
Just crunching the numbers and working on some data viz from our big lockdown project, the #BackyardBikeCount. Probably going to need to get a wee bit more granular than this, eh? But gotta start somewhere...
What a gorgeous weekend to get out and add your corner of town to the #BackyardBikeCountπ
Itβs easy, fun, takes just 15 minutes, and gathers data Auckland needs - to plan better spaces for all the biking, scooting, walking, jogging weβre all doing more of! Citizen science FTW!
We knew we could count on you, Auckland:Β surveys from >250 spots, and 20,000 recorded movements all over the city!
We're still counting in Level 3, so this weekend might be your last chance to add your corner of the big picture for the #BackyardBikeCount: https://t.co/fjdi2t56dW

@shanegallagher0 Our #BackyardBikeCount became a bit of a #FrontyardBirdCount, too.
During Level 4, the #1 thing people noticed while doing walk/bike/drive tallies on their street? "BIRDS!"*
*including this impressive kererΕ«, on busy-with-people Hinemoa St in Birkenhead.
And in Level 3? CARS.
This is a key reason weβre going to keep doing the #BackyardBikeCount through Level 3. With data, we can make the case for much more balanced street life in our neighbourhoods. Bike local, walk local, shop local for greater quality of life for all of us! https://t.co/yU75ryPIFt https://t.co/ez4KMpsMF6
By the way, the #BackyardBikeCount is still going! Weβre keen to keep track of how Aucklanders keep enjoying stress-free streets through Level 3 β and see where the demand is strong for pop-up infra.
Letβs cover the map with local data! Get involved here: https://t.co/yU75ryPIFt
60% of Aucklanders say they'd bike if it felt safer to do so.
The drop in traffic during lockdown instantly took the 'if' out of the equation. Result: according to our citywide #BackyardBikeCount, 64% of local trips in lockdown were on foot and by bike! https://t.co/8nxdy7Z2xl
As part of our citywide citizen-run #BackyardBikeCount, we've asked people what else they're noticing. The most common word and thus the biggest one in the word cloud, so far?

@arnie03 @CWLBloodDoc @AklTransport The #BackyardBikeCount: everybody's doing it! https://t.co/tb6kPSPAxc
The allocation of public space on our roads seems very inequitable #BackyardBikeCount @BikeAKL @AklTransport #ParkRd nearly twice as many people in active modes as in vehicles (115 vs 69) but no bike lanes. #Aklbikelife
Our #BackyardBikeCount on Tamaki Drive was huge, 101 people on wheels in 15 minutes @BikeAKL. That new @AklTransport extension is going to get some use. But please move the signs out and widen it slightly. Great start though, thank you.
All your long weekend reading in one place, in our latest e-news. Featuring feedback on Lake Road, the #BackyardBikeCount, newsmen on wheels, and local community action. π¬πππ½
