These are at LSOA level. It might also be worth producing maps at MSOA level, particularly because at that scale we will be able to include journeys to destinations outside West Yorkshire.

One thing I have noticed is that there is quite large variation in the number of commuters in each LSOA/MSOA. This may make some sites look better for cycling just because of the higher numbers of travellers. Of course, accessibility does induce travel demand, but there also be factors such as the local demographic makeup impacting this. It may be worth controlling for total number of commuters in each LSOA/MSOA, and seeing what difference this makes.

Looking good @joeytalbot. Where is the code that generates these maps? May be worth running some of the commands in the vignette for reproducibility while reducing the 'barrier to entry'. One way could be to save the intermediate route data generated by cyclestreets and read that in from a GitHub release.

The code is in acton/code/leeds-routing.R.

I'll add the Go Dutch maps into the case studies vignette and include some code that shows how they are generated.
