BOOKMARK

To increase the level of cycling, cities must pay attention to the design components of cycling infrastructure and provide a comfortable commuting space for citizens. 

The basic design considerations for cycling infrastructure include:

  • Vehicle speeds and cyclists’ safety
     
  • Safer types of cycling infrastructure​
     
  • Space needed for cycling 
     
  • Appropriate lighting
