NYC Bike Share Designed by New Yorkers 159 DOT’s 18-month public planning process for included 159 public bike share meetings, presentations and demonstrations since September 2011, plus another 230 meetings with elected officials, property owners and other stakeholders.

10,000 DOT’s interactive station planning map (nyc.gov/bikeshare) received over 10,000 station suggestions, and over 55,000 “supports” for these suggestions.

2,881 In total, DOT planners presented the public, Community Boards and other stakeholders with 2,881 technically viable options for the 600 bike share stations; almost 5 options for each station.

3 NYC BIKE SHARE: Designed by New Yorkers Planning New York’s newest travel option

New York is a biking city. Bike ridership has grown cycling as a means of transportation continues to fourfold in the last 10 years and biking is the become a more attractive transportation option city’s fastest growing transportation option for for New Yorkers. New Yorker’s looking for a fast, safe, convenient and affordable way to get around. Polls released Enthusiasm for Citi Bike is also reflected in by Quinnipiac University’s Polling Institute in numerous independent polls that show broad and October 2011 and August 2012 found that more sustained support for bike facilities. Communities than 70% of New Yorkers support Citi Bike, across the city are increasingly requesting that ’s proposed bike share system. lanes and other bike infrastructure be built in These findings are the culmination of growth in their neighborhoods. New York City, with its flat innovative, community requested and supported geography and high density, is perfectly suited infrastructure, from the nation’s first protected to bike riding. Citi Bike will take advantage of bike paths to bike parking corrals. With bike safety these strengths by offering an unlimited number remaining at the same high levels as a decade of affordable, short bike trips—provided to New ago, despite 75% more riders on the street, Yorkers without using any public funds.

Over 70% of New Yorkers support New York’s proposed bike share system.

The initial service area.

Successful bike share systems rely of demonstration events, hands-on community on an effective density of stations in a network, planning workshops, and an extended dialogue rather than on the specific placement of any and set of meetings between the New York single station. It was essential to cast a very wide City Department of Transportation (NYCDOT), outreach and communication net to introduce community boards and members of the NYC City a new transportation system that many New Council. Yorkers had not experienced before.

Choosing sites for 600 bike share stations across a wide area of Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens has been one of New York’s most participatory planning undertakings.

5 NYC BIKE SHARE: Designed by New Yorkers Long Term Public Dialogue

The rhythm of bike share planning in New York followed a pattern of DOT engagement, feedback from stakeholders, synthesis by DOT of many and diverse sources of input, and a return to stakeholders to discuss results. The work and process included these main steps:

Two Wheel Transit: NYC Bike Share On January 11th, 2012, the widely-attended Two Wheel Transit: NYC Bike Share exhibit opened at the AIA Center for Architecture on LaGuardia Place. The opening included a standing-room only presentation about Citi Bike with DOT Commissioner Janette Sadik-Khan. The exhibit featured graphics showing size and density of bike share systems around the world, comparing travel times in New York City on bike, subway and car, and had a computer so visitors to the show could suggest a location on the nyc.gov/bikeshare Website. As a further attraction, a demonstration bike share bike was mounted to so that visitors could spin the wheels and see the front and rear lights automatically illuminate. Over 2,700 visitors came to see Two Wheel Transit during its month-long run.

The nyc.gov/bikeshare site served as a two-way conduit to keep New Yorkers involved in the planning process. DOT staff used the suggestions from the Website to identify locations they might have missed in initial siting work, adding sites to the planning maps presented to community boards and other stakeholders. In addition, everyone who suggested a station location was invited to provide their e-mail address and zip code. Throughout the process, DOT used this information to notify interested individuals about nearby community planning workshops. The site also included a “contact us” feature. DOT staff

These the second phase of the outreach process. participants were important resources to help Borrowing from DOT’s experiences with other to get out the word to their communities. The participatory planning projects such as the Select workshops used interactive exercises and visual Bus Service community advisory committees, aids to stimulate in-depth conversations on the workshops were an opportunity for both transportation needs, how bike share could meet community groups and individual New Yorkers to those needs, the program itself, safety, and station weigh in directly on where stations should and locations. Participants worked on table-sized should not go. The workshops were designed maps showing all the technically qualified sites to elicit both general and specific input, ranging in their neighborhood and provided comment on from overall street or sidewalk preferences, and specific locations. details of specific sites. This range of feedback allowed DOT to eliminate specific locations and Each workshop map offered a wealth of develop a stronger understanding of the types of information for participants to use as they made locations that each neighborhood preferred.

Workshops elicited both general and specific input, from general street vs. sidewalk preferences and details of specific sites.

DOT also options in each square. Selecting one station in posted all upcoming events prominently on its each grid roughly corresponded to the desired Website and alerted local blogs and publications. bike share network density. A DOT moderator and note-taker were at each table to record comments and facilitate a conversation about the sites participants had chosen.

Workshops were organized in close coordination with community boards, elected officials and civic groups.

16 NYC BIKE SHARE: Designed by New Yorkers Synthesizing the data

Eighteen months of meetings, demonstrations and discussion, 14 community planning workshops, and more than 10,000 online suggestions produced a vast quantity of information on where New Yorkers wanted to see Citi Bike stations. DOT’s first task was to code and synthesize the workshop results from nearly 3,000 possible station locations. Locations that received red “No” arrows during the workshops were removed and locations that received significant numbers of green “Yes” votes were highlighted. Suggestions for other stations not depicted on the maps were vetted by DOT staff to ensure they met the technical criteria. Comments received via the Website or recorded by note-takers at the workshops were added in. Stations that received votes via the Website were prioritized over stations that had not.

DOT planners then used a Geographic Information System (GIS) program to create a predictive model for how big each individual station would need to be. The model analyzed the surrounding land use (residential, commercial, parkland, schools, etc.), population, tourism rates and subway turnstile counts and other transit use throughout the program area. The model also made use of newly available taxi GPS data on origins and destinations of trips, as well as durations and times of day throughout the city.

The next step was to marry the public opinion information gathered in the workshops, through the Website, and through months of conversation with stakeholders to the overall map of technically viable locations and the station size model. DOT planners combined all the comments received over the 18 month process with the technical information in order to select one station within each grid square. A wide array of factors – specific requests or comments, neighborhood preferences, proximity to transit and other destinations, distance from other stations, access and proximity to bike lanes, station size in relation to the demand model – were all considered. Predictive model for bike share station size

Planning and conducting a broad and inclusive public process for North America’s largest bike share system was a large scale undertaking that required the hard work and talent of dozens of people at the NYC Department of Transportation. Kate Fillin-Yeh was the architect of both the planning and engagement efforts and deserves special mention and thanks for her skill and dedication.
