The Impact of Infrastructure Design on Cycling Safety

Increasing concerns about the safety of cyclists request for more research in how infrastructure can be improved to increase cycling safety. Literature in the prediction of bicycle crash risk however is very limited. Also the amount of available (exposure) data was often very limited. The aim of this study was to provide a better understanding...

Relations between the obstacle space of cycling infrastructure and bicycle crashes: An analysis of Amsterdam

The objective of this study is to strengthen literature about cyclist safety and help prevent bicycle crashes in the future. It looks into the gap about the relation between the obstacle space of cycling infrastructure (that involves the space that is available for cyclists to avoid crashes with the obstacles therein) and the visibility thereof,...

The contribution of infrastructure characteristics to bicycle crashes without motor vehicles: A quantitative approach using a case-control design

Cycling is one of the main transport modes in the Netherlands and the total number of bicycles and the total cycling distances are still rising. Although this seems a positive development, the number of seriously injured cyclists due to bicycle crashes without motor vehicles increased rapidly in recent years. Within these crashes the...
