The Public Works Department compiles traffic counts conducted throughout the City. Generally, counts are completed by the County, Caltrans, or as part of a project or study. All intersection related collisions for which police respond or accident reports are filled out are also tracked and summarized in a database. This allows the City to identify safety problems that arise at specific intersections.

Requests for traffic volume should be submitted to the Public Works Department at (805) 470-3456 or publicworks@atascadero.org.

Requests for intersection collision reports should be directed to the Police Department at (805) 461-5051.
