Hillsborough County Bicycle Network Plan – completed 2023

Overview

This plan was developed to identify, prioritize, and suggest improvements for several corridors that present a high risk for people riding bicycles. As such, the process began by developing a methodology to establish a risk score based on a bicyclist’s crash risk, their comfort and exposure to traffic, and whether the identified segment helped to achieve a more complete network. Next, scored segments were prioritized. This was done by applying weight to each score to balance the maximum and minimum scores, and the various qualitative and quantitative aspects that were used to develop the score. Four segments were ultimately chosen for the project development and recommendations phase. Each recommendation is placed into a tier based on Hillsborough County’s Bicycle Corridor Safety Retrofit Toolbox.
