How does your SuperSafe mode work?

Written by Tom Macmichael

We've spent months developing custom models for each city we've launched in:

  • Los Angeles

  • London

  • New York

  • Bay Area

We've created a bespoke map for each city, built specifically for cyclists.

That means no unprotected intersections (where you'd cross a dangerous road without a stop sign or traffic light) — and you'll mostly be riding through quiet side-streets.

Our philosophy is that there's always a safe route, and we'll always take you down it!

SuperSafe on vs off

Use the SuperSafe toggle in the planner to choose how we route you:

  • On — we prioritise protected bike lanes, quiet streets and safe crossings, and colour-code your route by how safe each section is (blue = city cycle routes, green = quiet, orange = busier, red = busy roads).

  • Off — a more direct route that may use busier roads to save time, with no safety colour-coding.
