Cycling Up

The project

Cycling Up is a project requested by Brussels Mobility consisting in creating an online dashboard that evaluates the bicycle infrastructure of Brussels. Through interactive maps, graphics and facts, Cycling Up demonstrates a wide range of past and present data on the Brussels bike network. This project is part of oSoc 4-week summer programme.

History of the GFR*

The total amount of infrastructure is calculated in kilometers and includes the ones separated from the main roads as well as the suggested paths and the Regional Cyclable Routes (RCR), better know as the GFR network. The RCRs are suggested paths for cyclists willing to commute on a medium to long distance. The data that is available is from 1998 until 2014.

Brussels infrastructure

The evolution of the number of cyclists variates according to the seasons. They are defined by the following months: January, May, September and November. This graph depicts the gap between each seasons from 1998 till 2017. Each data represents the number of cyclists taken randomnly at a t-point. None of these should be taken as granted and considered as absolute data.
