The analysis of the bicycle infrastructure in Novosibirsk is carried out. The principles of functioning and the current state of the bicycle infrastructure are considered. A number of problems in this field were identified, including the lack of a unified bicycle transport network and the insecurity of the movement of cyclists in the traffic stream. The results of the research will be used in the development of an geographic information system designed to analyze the city bicycle infrastructure. This system will visualize the main elements of the bicycle infrastructure on an interactive map, construct bicycle routes, and also collect data on the state of the infrastructure through interaction with users. The geographic information system will be useful in the development of strategy for the designing of the bicycle infrastructure of the city by the relevant departments, and it will also find its application as an information and navigation system for bike owners.
