FHWA E-bike Resources
Access This Resource:
Description:
The use of electric bicycles (e-bikes) is growing rapidly in the United States. E-bikes present an opportunity to reduce car travel, improve health, and increase access; however, the relationship between e-bikes and safety, infrastructure, and the environment is not fully understood and remains of interest to decision makers and potential riders. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is advancing research on e-bikes to better understand e-bike trends and impacts, and how jurisdictions around the country are managing them.
