Complete description

The Eco-Counter Easy-ZELT has been installed in cities around the world including Vancouver, Seattle and Montreal. Installation is quick and easy and requires no engineering work. The Easy-ZELT system is ideal for bridge installations or short-term counting projects or to test the effects of a layout.

How this bike counter works

Eco-Counter’s Easy- ZELT Inductive Loop system is the perfect solution for temporary off-street bike counting (one to six months). The system uses single-use adhesive loops rather than permanent loops that are cut into the road, making it easy to install and simple to move from one location to the next.

The ZELT loop precisely analyzes the electromagnetic signature of each bicycle wheel using 13 differentiation criteria. The ZELT’s unique SIRIUS algorithm allows the system to detect all types of bicycles with extreme precision.

Quick to install, the Easy-ZELT temporary bike counter lets you carry out one-off surveys.

Testing an infrastructure

The Easy-ZELT is an economical, easy-to-install temporary bike counting solution. It is ideal for short- to medium-term cycling infrastructure test periods (i.e. one to six months).

Justify New Infrastructure

In Vancouver, two Easy-ZELTs were installed to monitor cycling on provisional bicycle lanes. The trial involved removing one vehicle lane on the Burrard Bridge to provide space for dedicated cycling facilities. The data collected over a year highlighted a significant increase of cyclists volumes on the bridge.

Simple & Robust

The Easy-ZELT is an economical temporary counting solution. The system installs very easily (around 30 minutes per loop) and is ideal for bridges and cycling infrastructure trials (1-6 months). The system is robust; the loops are adhered securely to the ground. A number of trials that involved the Easy-ZELT system have counted more than 1 million cyclists without requiring replacement loops.

Case study

Presidio Tunnel Tops Park in San Francisco, California was created after the highway leading to the Golden Gate Bridge was replaced by tunnels. From day one, the park’s marketing manager wanted to understand how successful the new landmark was. To support that goal, Eco-Counter solutions were installed to provide long-term insights and guide informed decision-making.

Case study

The Napa Valley Vine Trail is a popular 18.5 mile (and counting!) multi-use trail in Napa, California. Pedestrians and cyclists along the route are counted and differentiated, and their direction of travel is also recorded. This data helps the trail's coalition understand how the trail is used, plan new developments, and secure funding for expansion.
