Bike Path Connectivity

This report outlines the current state of bike path connectivity in Alachua County and the City of Gainesville, focusing on accessibility, safety, and the availability of bike racks. By analyzing physical maps and ranking points of interest, we identify key gaps in the network and propose new routes to enhance connectivity. Recommendations include improving bike rack placement, categorizing dangerous intersections, and addressing GIS data collection challenges. Our findings aim to facilitate safer and more accessible bicycling options, ultimately promoting cycling as a viable transportation alternative.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Bike Path Connectivity Carsyn Painter Natalya Morgan Bridget Wlosek Janna Bond

  2. Introduction • Bike path connectivity -Definition • Points of interest -Analyzing the physical map -Ranking system • Improvement plan • Additional thoughts on safety

  3. 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

  4. 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

  5. Bike Paths in Alachua County

  6. Bike Paths in the City of Gainesville

  7. Relevant Bike Racks on UF Campus

  8. 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

  9. Proposed Bike Paths in the City of Gainesville

  10. 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

  11. Bike paths in relation to the crime index
