The Local Highway Technical Assistance Council (LHTAC) has purchased four (4) traffic counters for loan to Local Highway Jurisdictions around the state.  These counters basically count two (2) impacts on the road tube as one (1) vehicle.  They do not separate the trucks from the automobiles, and consequently, they will give a basic average daily traffic (ADT) count for your system.  This information is important, particularly if you are applying for Federal-aid highway funds, or merely want to observe the changes in traffic patterns and volumes throughout your system.

If you are interested in borrowing these units, for up to one month at a time, we would be glad to reserve them for you.  Please contact our office either by telephone at 1-800-259-6841 / 208-344-0565 or by email and we will make arrangements for delivery on a first come first serve basis.
