Bicycling Maps

New York City Bike Map The New York City Cycling Map shows existing bicycle lanes, existing and planned greenways, and a network of recommended on-street routes. The existing and planned routes are the result of extensive fieldwork involving analysis of traffic conditions and assessment of the connectivity, accessibility, and safety of the network, as well as meetings that sought community input.

The New York Cycling Map was designed by in-agency Bicycle Program staff at the NYC Department of City Planning and the Department of Transportation. Cycling maps are available for free at the NYC Department of City Planning bookstore at 22 Reade Street in Manhattan, in bicycle shops, libraries, and schools. They can also be obtained by calling the New York City Call Center at 311 or 212-NEW-YORK.
