MetroCount

MetroCount

Road tubes installed across the road collect data for traffic counts.

The Tug Hill Commission is offering use of its MetroCount system to municipalities in the Tug Hill region. The MetroCount system collects data on traffic patterns (vehicle speed, class, direction, flow, spacing, etc.) and is typically installed for one week. Municipalities may request a variety of data sets related to various traffic metrics.
