M.A.1 - Percent split of modes based on commute to work (mode share)

While the existing Barton Springs Road bridge is in fair condition structurally, many of its features are functionally obsolete and require rehabilitation or replacement to ensure safety and longevity. Given that the existing bridge presents mobility challenges for vehicles, bikes and pedestrians, this project will provide needed mobility enhancements for all users.

The City of Austin evaluated Circle S Road as part of the 2016 Mobility Bond. This preliminary engineering project evaluated road conditions for possible future design and construction opportunities on Circle S Road between Eberhart Lane and Foremost Drive.

Between 2020 and 2023, protected bikeways and intersection improvements were installed along Barton Skyway. As of Spring 2024, the Austin Transportation and Public Works Department (TPW) is considering changes to these previously installed improvements.

This dataset contains information about Bluetooth devices detected by our Bluetooth travel sensors. Each record contains a detected device’s anonymized Media Access Control (MAC) address along with the time and location the device was detected. These records alone are not traffic data but can be post-processed to measure the movement of detected devices through the roadway network

How does the City of Austin use the Bluetooth travel sensor data?
The data enables transportation engineers to better understand short and long-term trends in Austin’s traffic patterns, supporting decisions about systems planning and traffic signal timing.

What information does the data contain?
The sensor data is available in three datasets:

Individual Address Records ( https://data.austintexas.gov/dataset/Bluetooth-Travel-Sensors-Individual-Addresses/qnpj-zrb9/data )
Each row in this dataset represents a Bluetooth device that was detected by one of our sensors. Each record contains a detected device’s anonymized Media Access Control (MAC) address along with the time and location the device was detected. These records alone are not traffic data but can be post-processed to measure the movement of detected devices through the roadway network

Individual Traffic Matches ( https://data.austintexas.gov/dataset/Bluetooth-Travel-Sensors-Individual-Traffic-Matche/x44q-icha/data )
Each row in this dataset represents one Bluetooth enabled device that detected at two locations in the roadway network. Each record contains a detected device’s anonymized Media Access Control (MAC) address along with contain information about origin and destination points at which the device was detected, as well the time, date, and distance traveled.

Traffic Summary Records ( https://data.austintexas.gov/dataset/Bluetooth-Travel-Sensors-Match-Summary-Records/v7zg-5jg9 )
The traffic summary records contain aggregate travel time and speed summaries based on the individual traffic match records. Each row in the dataset summarizes average travel time and speed along a sensor-equipped roadway segment in 15 minute intervals.

Does this data contain personally identifiable information?
No. The Media Access Control (MAC) addresses in these datasets are randomly generated.

This dataset contains information about the location of the Austin MetroBike bicycle rental kiosks.
