Bicycle Planning

Want to ride a bike? Greensboro has bicycle lanes, edgelines, greenways, and some low-volume streets that are appropriate for bicycling. GDOT's Planning Division works to plan and implement these types of bicycle facilities, and we also provide information about how to share the road safely.


Bicycle Routes & Maps

Bike Map Cover

In 2007, Greensboro established a new bike route system based on the recommendations in the BiPed Plan. Along with the new routes came a new bicycle map that provides an overview of road conditions and routes for bicycling.

The map includes roads, greenways, and major destinations in Greensboro and surrounding areas. Safety tips and suitability ratings for main roadways can help you create your own route and ride safely.
