Share Your Feedback on Biking in Edina and Richfield
The League of American Bicyclists is seeking public input on what it’s like to bike—or to want to bike—in communities across the country as part of its annual Bicycle Friendly Community public survey.
Commuter Services encourages people who live, work, visit, or ride in Edina and Richfield to complete the survey. Your feedback will help the League and local communities better understand current bicycling conditions, identify opportunities for improvement, and support efforts to make biking safer, more comfortable, and more convenient for everyone.
The survey takes approximately 10–15 minutes to complete, and nearly all questions are optional. Responses will be shared anonymously in aggregate with applicant communities as part of their Bicycle Friendly Community feedback later this year.
Please take a few minutes to share your experience and help create a more bicycle-friendly community. Complete the survey at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/BFC_2026. Survey closes Sept. 8, 2026. Questions about the survey may be directed to bfa@bikeleague.org.

It is easier than I thought to walk or bike instead of drive. It’s really true – we can each make a difference.
