Cycling infrastructure development in Niterói

Overview

Niterói has established itself as a leading cycling municipality in Latin America according to the Copenhagenize 2025 index. The city’s infrastructure includes a network of approximately 91 to 100 kilometers of bike lanes, cycle paths, and shared sidewalks.

A key component of the city’s mobility strategy is the NitBike bicycle-sharing program. Since its implementation in 2024, the system has facilitated over 2 million trips. The network has continued to grow, expanding into the Oceanic Region with new stations at the Camboinhas Roundabout and near the Itaipu Multicenter Shopping. This expansion brings the total number of NitBike stations to 65.
