Barriers to investing in cycling: Stakeholder views from England

Transportation Research Part A: Policy and Practice, 2019, vol. 128, issue C, 149-159

Abstract: Planners and politicians in many countries seek to increase the proportion of trips made by cycling. However, this is often challenging. In England, a national target to double cycling by 2025 is likely to be missed: between 2001 and 2011 the proportion of commutes made by cycling barely grew. One important contributory factor is continued low investment in cycling infrastructure, by comparison to European leaders.
