Utah Planned Bikeways

The Utah Bikeways dataset provides a detailed representation of planned on-street and pathway bikeway features in the state and serves as a comprehensive resource for understanding the state's cycling infrastructure. The data includes various attributes such as the name of the bikeway, the city and county it traverses, and specific details about the facility type (e.g., dedicated bike lanes, shared-use paths). It also includes an estimated Level of Traffic Stress (LTS) score and the source of the data. The Utah Planned Bikeways data is intended for planning, analysis, and visualization of planned cycling routes and infrastructure at various scales within Utah. Users should be aware that while efforts are made to keep the data current, recent changes in infrastructure are not immediately reflected. Data updates are sourced through periodic coordination between transportation agencies (UDOT and Utah's four MPOs), local government GIS and active transportation contacts, and through user submissions with the Utah Bikeways app. For current/existing features, users should use the Utah Bikeways dataset. The Planned Bikeways data is maintained within two separate statewide editing layers stewarded by UGRC -- Roads and Trails and Pathways. This more user-friendly dataset is derived by UGRC using a python script that combines bike facilities in the two editing layers. It merges and formats the data into a single schema, determines the best bike feature, and which side of the road the best feature is on. The script also calculates a Level of Traffic Stress metric that represents the amount of discomfort people feel when they ride their bicycles near traffic. Finally, the data is split into existing and planned features, for use in the Utah Bikeways app.犹他州自行车道数据集（Utah Bikeways Dataset）详细呈现了该州规划中的路侧及专用步道自行车道设施，是助力全面了解犹他州自行车交通基础设施的综合资源。本数据集涵盖多项属性，包括自行车道名称、途经的城市与郡县，以及设施类型的具体细节（例如专用自行车道、共用步道），此外还包含估算的交通压力等级（Level of Traffic Stress, LTS）评分与数据来源。本犹他州规划自行车道数据专为犹他州范围内不同尺度下的规划自行车路线与基础设施的规划、分析及可视化工作打造。用户需注意：尽管已尽力保障数据时效性，但基础设施的最新变更无法即时同步至数据中。数据更新通过三类渠道定期同步：一是交通主管部门，包括犹他州交通局（UDOT）与犹他州四大大都市规划组织（MPOs）；二是地方政府地理信息系统（GIS）与主动交通联络点；三是通过犹他州自行车道应用提交的用户反馈。若需获取当前/已建成的自行车道设施数据，用户应使用犹他州自行车道数据集。规划自行车道数据由犹他州地理信息协调办公室（UGRC）托管的两个独立州级编辑图层进行维护——即道路与步道图层以及路径图层。该更便于用户使用的数据集由UGRC通过Python脚本整合两个编辑图层中的自行车设施生成，脚本会将数据合并并格式化为统一的数据模式，确定最优自行车设施方案及其所在道路侧别，同时计算交通压力等级指标，该指标用于衡量骑行者在车流附近骑行时感受到的不适程度。最终，数据会被划分为已建成与规划中的设施两类，以供犹他州自行车道应用使用。
