Source: National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP)

Provides calculations used to estimate costs, the demand in terms of new cyclists, and measured economic benefits (e.g., time savings, increased livability, decreased health costs, a more enjoyable ride).

This resource was adapted from the demands and benefits of outlined in NCHRP Report 552: Guidelines for Analysis of Investments in Bicycle Facilities.

It is also part of the methodology for a tool (no longer supported) that helped calculate these metrics and are outlined in a Guidelines White Paper.
