title('Mean Bicycle Count by Hour of Day')
There are traffic spikes at the typical commute hours, around 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Also, the trends
between the Eastbound and Westbound directions are different. In general, the Westbound direction
is toward residential areas surrounding the Cambridge area and toward the Universities. The
Eastbound direction is toward Boston.
The traffic is heavier later in the day in the Westbound direction compared to the Eastbound
direction. This might indicate university schedules and traffic due to restaurants in the area. Examine
the trend by day of week as well as hour of day.
