Short Count Factoring Guide
Short Count Factoring Guide (PDF 963KB): This guide provides a general overview of traffic counting programs, as well as a more detailed discussion of suggested practice in relation to short duration traffic count field and office techniques. The intent is to encourage high standards and uniform practices among local traffic counting programs within the State of Washington so that an accurate representation of traffic on our public roadways is available to all interested parties. It is an informational guide only and does not constitute a specification or a statement of required practice.
Slow down – lives are on the line.
In 2023, speeding continued to be a top reason for work zone crashes.
Even one life lost is too many.
Fatal work zone crashes doubled in 2023 - Washington had 10 fatal work zone crashes on state roads.
It's in EVERYONE’S best interest.
95% of people hurt in work zones are drivers, their passengers or passing pedestrians, not just our road crews.
