This analysis examines Indego Bike Share ridership during Q2 of 2024, highlighting total ridership by station and average trip duration. I used R Studio to conduct the analysis, and ArcGIS Pro and Adobe Illustrator to display the findings.

Zooming into Center City (figure 4), shows how Philadelphia's bike share usage closely follows the city's protected bike lane network. The station with the highest volume of uses is on 15th and Spruce, a very dense area in Center City, where two protected bike lanes intersect.
I calculated the average trip durations for each station in minutes to determine which stations had the longest and shortest trip distances.
