All Things Urban

What does cycling experience look like in practice? How can we measure and conceptualize it? This course will take you through 7 examples of infrastructure using 2 lenses: the Heuristic Evaluation tool and the Social, Sensory, and Spatial Experience framework. In a practical exercise at the end you use one of these lenses in your own city, and are then given resources for further study. Note: this is intended as a structured way to learn about infrastructure that addresses cycling experience. You can also individually reference our open examples here.

- Urban mobility professionals from a variety of roles (e.g. engineers, planners, designers, project managers, and decision makers) ready to relate their work to the end user’s experience. - Private, public, and nonprofit professionals alike (not limited to one sector). - Students interested in learning about the application of user experience in mobility planning.

Some background in cycling or urban planning and an interest in the human experience or background in user experience or social science and an interest in cycling.

BUX is on a mission to change the way bicycle infrastructure is designed & made so that it is more user-friendly. We help urban mobility professionals and organizations learn how to think from the perspective of diverse end users of the street. We envision cities where cycling is an inclusive, accessible everyday form of transportation that fits into people’s lives and benefits all. BUX offers trainings (both online and on-site) and case-specific advice. If you want to understand the ‘why’ - the mechanics behind why some infrastructure works while others will not be used- we invite you to explore our open courses and methods. Our goal is to equip you with the tools and mindset to make change in your city and working context.
