Bicycle Network Analysis
BICYCLE NETWORK ANALYSIS
The Bicycle Network Analysis (BNA) helps communities measure the quality of their low-stress bike network. It assesses the degree to which people can comfortably bike to the places they want to go. Our goal with the tool is to lower the barrier to basic network analysis and encourage cities of all sizes to build connected, comfortable bike networks.
Help us improve the BNA
- The accuracy of the BNA is dependent on the information about roads, bike facilities and key destinations in OpenStreetMap (OSM). You can help ensure your city’s BNA is accurate by contributing to OpenStreetMap. The following resources will help you get started.
- The BNA is an evolving project and your input will help us make sure that it is useful and actionable in the long term. Join the BNA Insiders Facebook Group to give us your feedback about how we can make it more useful for you.
