Research and Development: A Bike Equity iMap for the San Francisco Bay Area

Cites are growing their investment in urban bike systems to substitute driving for daily origin to destination commutes and multimodal access. These investments require accurate methods and dataset for equity assessments. This project directly addresses this need in the 9 counties of the San Francisco Bay Area region. In partnership with the community using an integrated Delphi-AHP (Analytical Hierarchy Process) method, the research team will define the indicators of bike-ability and a weighting matrix for the defined indicators to quantify bike-ability and bike equity assessments. Ultimately, the team will design and develop a interactive online user-interface to showcase the findings along with data for other non-auto transportation infrastructure (e.g., transit) to support local policy and planning for enhancing multi-modal mobility in the San Francisco Bay Area.
