For too long, many refined transportation models have focused solely on private and public transportation, assuming that bicycles only require simple models, such as bird flight distance or trips on horizontal tracks at a constant speed. This paper aims ...

Cycling can be particularly beneficial for socioeconomically disadvantaged populations. First, because it can allow them to access opportunities that by other modes they may not afford. Secondly, because it can increase their physical activity levels and...

Urban street networks impact urban space usage and movement across a city. Circuity, the ratio of network distances to straight-line distances, is considered a critical measurement in urban network morphology and transportation efficiency as it can measu...

Among the most effective actions to promote functional cycling, i.e., cycling as a mean of transport, infrastructure design and planning are major topics. Much less attention has been dedicated to the design and deployment of bikeways devoted to recreati...

We propose an optimization framework for urban bicycle network design. The model takes into account interests of the users (who travel along shortest paths) and the planners (available budget). An underlying network composed by street segments suitable t...

The infrastructure for parking and parked cars themselves (e.g., parked cars blocking bike lanes and sidewalks or the visibility range) can lead to conflicts for pedestrians and cyclists. The perception of conflicts could discourage walking and cycling i...
