Supporting the transition in the mountains

A management tool for elected officials and technicians

The data from the sensors allows the CCVT to:

• Better size the trail developments (walkways, pavements, safety),
• Identify the impacts of new practices such as trail running or mountain biking,
• Finding the right balance between tourist attractiveness, local acceptability and Combating overtourism.

Attendance monitoring allows us to improve facilities and to assess the impact of new practices.

In perspective: mountain biking and greenways

The community is preparing for the future:

• Of Mountain bike counting tests will be launched soon on adapted routes.
• One Future greenway should connect the valleys to the Annecy region, with a need for follow-up as soon as it opens.
• The CCVT participates in the process Annecy Mountains, by promoting the cohabitation between users and mountain environments.

It works well. We even reused some sensors in winter on snowshoe trails.

Issues and impacts

• Support the forms of diversification of mountain activities
• Better distribution of flows over time and space
• Justify investments in alternative mobility
• Anticipate usage tensions, especially in summer

Feedback

Between 8 and 10. We are satisfied. The theft of a meter cooled us a bit, but that does not call into question the quality of the tool.

Following this incident, the community is considering“hollowed-out pole” option proposed by Kiomda, to make devices more secure in certain sensitive areas (for example during hunting season).
