NolaCycle Bike Map Project: Plan B Bike Co-op is hosting a Halloween-themed Bike-In movie this Sunday

NolaCycle is a project aimed to create a high quality cycling map of New Orleans. Cycling maps include information beyond just streets and their names that benefits cyclists. In our map, we highlight the pavement quality, car travel speed, lane width, and special caution areas (busy intersections, man-eating potholes, or high accident areas). Volunteers help to collect this data either by attending mapping events or doing it on their own time with NolaCycle DIY maps.
The data is then digitized to make a map of the data we collected and a map of recommended routes based on the data.

We are currently working on getting FREE maps available online and in print to help cyclists - young, old, local, and tourist alike - navigate New Orleans.

Check out the blog for updates on the project, ways to get involved, and volunteer mapping events!
