8 cycling in cities survey paved off-street cycle paths for bikes only 85% likely to choose paved off-street multi-use paths 77% likely to choose route preferences: top 5 of 16 unpaved off-street multi-use paths 71% likely to choose cycle paths next to major city streets separated by a barrier 71% likely to choose residential street bicycle routes with traffic calming 65% likely to choose 17
9 cycling in cities survey major streets with parked cars 71% unlikely to choose major city streets with no parked cars 70% unlikely to choose route preferences: bottom 5 rural road with no paved shoulder 61% unlikely to choose rural road with paved shoulder 49% unlikely to choose major streets with bike symbols and parked cars 48% unlikely to choose 18
10 cycling in cities survey route use vs. route preference Note: legend in order of likelihood of choosing 19
11 cycling in cities survey differences in preference: by type of cyclist 20
12 cycling in cities survey differences in preference: by other factors no difference by - city of residence: Vancouver vs. other cities in the Metro area - level of education - low vs. high income differences by - age group: but no clear pattern - sex: ratings are not different for high preference routes, but women are less likely to choose the low preference routes - children in the household: ratings are not different for high preference routes, but those with children are less likely to choose the low preference routes 21
13 cycling in cities survey other motivators and deterrents? route ease & enjoyment away from air pollution or traffic noise beautiful scenery away from traffic for entire distance flat travel time shorter than other modes safety ice & snow car, bus & truck traffic glass or debris vehicles driving faster than 50 km/h motorists who don t know how to drive safely near bikes 22
14 cycling in cities survey implications for planning: people don t need special designs for each type of cyclist - everyone gives similar rankings to the route types and design features best to avoid expenditures on low preference routes - they won t encourage more cycling, since they have negative scores from occasional cyclists, women, and people with children 23
15 cycling in cities survey implications for planning: routes 3 main route types to encourage cycling: off-road paths: paved & for cyclists only major streets: paths separated from motor vehicle lanes by a curb or other barrier residential streets: marked for cycling & with traffic calming 24
