Mapping Bike Infrastructure in 100 Cities Around the World

by u/UnrequitedReason

With the surge in bicycle use over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic, municipalities around the world are experiencing a unique opportunity to transform urban spaces to be more cyclist-friendly. This includes building protected bike lanes that make it easier for cyclists to share busy city streets with cars.

Bike network density is the most important factor in encouraging people to ride bikes, with each standard deviation (about 1 kilometer of bike infrastructure per square kilometer) associated with an additional 150 bike commuters per 10,000 commuters. Bike network connectivitity is the second most imoirtant factor, with one standard deviation correlated to an additional 37 bike commuters per 10,000 commuters.

By using a combination of webscraping and computer vision techniques, we mapped bike infrastructure in 100 cities around the world, making it possible to view differences in network connectivity and density,
