Monograph

This issue contains 17 papers concerned with the planning, design, operations and infrastructure aspects of bicycles. Specific topics addressed include: bicycle-specific traffic signals; automated collection of cyclist data; the bicycle's role in limiting transport poverty in the Netherlands; the modeling of passing events in mixed bicycle traffic; driver and cyclist education materials; bikesharing ridership; bicycle infrastructure quality-of service metrics; and bicyclist acceleration and speed distributions at intersections. Other specific topics discussed in this issue include: commuter cyclist travel behavior; public bikesharing in North America; multimodal conflicts in urban on-street bicycle lanes; built environment and household electric bike ownership; bikeshare users; e-bikeshare; typology of cyclists; innovative bicycle facilities in Washington, D.C.; and surface roughness standards for wheelchair pathways.
