Bike Path Connectivity Carsyn Painter Natalya Morgan Bridget Wlosek Janna Bond
Introduction • Bike path connectivity -Definition • Points of interest -Analyzing the physical map -Ranking system • Improvement plan • Additional thoughts on safety
Methods • Deciding upon points of interest -Ranking them according to accessibility • Bike racks -No more than 50 meters away from a path -30 or more spaces • Proposing new paths to promote connectivity - How we chose new paths
Results • Many relevant points of interest are inaccessible • There are sizable gaps in the network of bike paths • Many bike racks are too small or too far away from paths
Conclusions • Proposal for new bike paths -Southwest Archer Road -34th Street -University Avenue -13th Street -Village Drive • Potential crossover for cyclists on the intersection of 34th and SW Archer Rd
Biking Safety Improvements • Plans to categorize dangerous intersections • Problems with GIS data collection • Potential implications for proper data collection • Potential real world applications for bicyclists
