Are you conducting a traffic study and in need of some equipment? We are looking for people to help collecting trip generation data particularly for urgent care-emergency room, marijuana dispensary, delivery distribution center, and fast casual restaurants. If you have an upcoming traffic study for any of these land uses (or others) we would like to hear from you. We have a limited number of data collection equipment that we will lend you for your study in exchange for sharing the data with TripGeneration.org.  We will even help you count the data you collect! Email sales@countingcars.com for more information.

  • I need to know the comparision between a self-storage project and a warehouse. They want me to pay warehouse traffic fees and I know we do not produce that type of volume. can you help?

  • You’ll need to locally collect trip generation if you want to fight it, but we aren’t in a position to help you with that.
