Cycle commuting in Belgium: Spatial determinants and ‘re-cycling’ strategies (2011, background): “…the (perceived) risk of death and injury in traffic crashes strongly discourages people from cycling (Hopkinson and Wardman, 1996; McClintock and Cleary, 1996; Curtis and Headicar, 1997; Jacobsen, 2003; Pikora et al., 2003; Pucher and Dijkstra, 2003; Pucher and Buehler, 2006; Parkin et al., 2007).”
Bikeway Networks: A Review of Effects on Cycling (2016, methodology): “Aggregate-level analyses were either case studies of cities and countries or relied on (sub) samples of national data sources, such as travel surveys or censuses (e.g. Dill & Carr, 2003; Nelson & Allen, 1997; Pucher & Buehler, 2006; Schoner & Levinson, 2014).”
Commuting by Bicycle: An Overview of the Literature (2010, background): “Third, having more bicycle paths has been found to result in a higher share of cycling (Barnes and Thompson, 2006; Pucher and Buehler, 2006).”
Better Understanding the Characteristics and Influential Factors of Different Travel Patterns in Free-Floating Bike Sharing: Evidence from Nanjing, China (2018, background): “This result was perhaps because ODP and TCP were more suitable for short-distance travel, due to limitations of time and effort, and the strength of TP became more prominent with increasing travel distances [28,41,42].”
A hybrid-choice latent-class model for the analysis of the effects of weather on cycling demand (2015, background): “In particular, having more bicycle facilities results in a higher share of cycling (Akar and Clifton, 2009; Barnes and Thompson, 2006; Pucher and Buehler, 2006; Klobucar and Fricker, 2007; Dill and Voros, 2007).”
Determinants of transport mode choice: a comparison of Germany and the USA (2011, background): “For example, low density and spread-out developments make walking and cycling unattractive—due to long distances between trip origins and destinations and often insufficient supply of bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure (CEMT, 2004; Pucher and Buehler, 2006).”
The effect of work-related factors on the bicycle commute mode choice in the Netherlands (2013, background): “…the distance travelled, and attitudes towards cycling (e.g. Heinen et al. 2011, forthcoming; Gatersleben and Appleton 2007; Parkin et al. 2008; Pucher and Buehler 2006; Rodrı́guez and Joo 2004; Rietveld and Daniel 2004; Bergström and Magnussen 2003; Dickinson et al. 2003; Stinson and Bhat…”
