Improving bicycle routing by modifying a road network

  • Cycling is an important mode of environmentally friendly transportation. However, the choice of a pleasant cycling route, is affected by many factors, including relief, road surface, availability of green spaces and others. This paper investigates a method of modifying the road network to enhance cycling routes with the information of surface roughness. To achieve that we utilize data from the accelerometers from everyday smartphones mounted on bicycle handlebars. Based on the gathered data, road sections are extended, or contracted and new cycling routes are calculated. The proposed methodology produces short alternative routes with less uneven road sections.
