Electric Vehicle Readiness Plan
The Electric Vehicle Readiness Plan (EVRP) provides the City with several options of how it can best prepare for an increase in EV ownership. While there were about 2,300 EVs in El Paso County as of September 2020, the city can expect between 400,000 and 850,000 EVs on its roads by 2050.

The City of Colorado Springs is partnering with City Traffic, Fort Carson, and US Ignite to collect weather data that will be paired with traffic data to learn more about traffic patterns to and from Fort Carson.
Multi-Modal Counters
Several stakeholders including Traffic Engineering, the Downtown Partnership, and the Park Union Business Improvement District are interested in collecting data on vehicular, bicycle, and pedestrian traffic in certain areas of town.
