Catalysts and magnets: Built environment and bicycle commuting

Jessica E. Schoner, Jason Cao and David Levinson

Journal of Transport Geography, 2015, vol. 47, issue C, 100-108

Abstract: What effects do bicycle infrastructure and the built environment have on people’s decisions to commute by bicycle? While many studies have considered this question, commonly employed methodologies fail to address the unique statistical challenge of modeling modes with small mode shares. Additionally, personal characteristics that are not adequately accounted for may lead to overestimation of built environment impacts.
