ADOT is making it easier for residents and tourists to bicycle throughout Arizona by updating the free Cycle Arizona Bicycle User Map available and adding a mobile-friendly version. To help cyclists plan their routes, the map includes information on shoulder widths, grades and traffic volumes for the state highway system. It also has links to resources on laws and policies, local bike paths and U.S. Bicycle Route 90, which spans 573 miles between Arizona’s eastern and western borders, and connects to a national network of bike routes. A 2013 ADOT study found that bicycle tourists contribute more than $88 million annually to the state economy. Bike routes on the map include Cottonwood, Camp Verde and Sedona.
