UCLA to Develop First County-Wide Bicycle Data Clearinghouse

The UCLA Complete Streets Initiative recently was selected by the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) to create a bicycle data clearinghouse in a partnered effort with Ryan Snyder Associates, the Los Angeles County Bicycle Coalition (LACBC), and Kittleson and Associates. As a part of this multi-phase $150,000 project, UCLA will collect and standardize data for municipalities in Los Angeles County, and will create a Web-based, user-friendly map interface available to policymakers and the public. Such a bicycle data set will be the first of its kind in the county.

The team of Lewis Center researchers includes Madeline Brozen and Norman Wong, Professor Rui Wang, and graduate students. Their effort builds upon the UCLA Lewis Center’s other Web-GIS interface projects including the California Land Opportunities Tracking System (CA-LOTS), a Web-GIS tool which allows planners and developers throughout the region to identify infill development opportunities in priority growth areas.
