COMFORT MAP

2024 Bicycle Comfort Level Map 

This map is your guide to the least stressful or most comfortable routes to get around Arlington by bike. Instead of just showing bike trails, bike lanes, and sharrows, it uses a data-driven rating system to rate roads as most comfortable, comfortable, less comfortable or not recommended, based on a variety of factors.  

The BikeArlington Bicycle Comfort Level Map is a more public-facing version of a Geographic Information System (GIS) bicycle comfort map created in partnership with the Department of Environmental Services’ Transportation, Engineering, and Operations Bureau and the Transportation Planning Capital Projects Management Bureau.
