  • Cycling In Cities (917)
    Cycling in Cities is a program of research to investigate what factors encourage or discourage the use of bicycles for urban transportation. This research program includes a number of studies, outlined in the table below and described in more detail throughout the website.

    The research program is based at the University of British Columbia (Dept. of Health Care and Epidemiology, and School of Environmental Health) in western Canada. It has many partners including researchers from the Universities of Victoria and Toronto, cycling planners, cycling advocates, and hospital-based researchers in Vancouver and Toronto.

    Every year in the District of Columbia there are roughly 250 crashes involving bicycles and motor vehicles and 500 involving pedestrians. The District Government is committed to bringing these numbers down, while simultaneously increasing the amount of bicycling and walking in Washington. To achieve this goal, the DC Department of Transportation contracted with WABA to create a Safe Streets campaign, designed to increase awareness and safety on city streets.
