Abstract:

As of July 1992 the city of Phoenix had a bicycle system of about 300 mi; another 45 mi of on-street bike lanes are planned for fiscal year 1992-1993. The addition of new facilities and encouragement of bicycling as an alternative mode of transportation will lead to greater bicycle accident exposure. Bicycle volumes and use characteristics at select commuter bike lanes during typical commute and noontime hours are summarized. This information will be used to help target bicycle safety education and training in the city. Data were also collected at five sites during the Bike to Work Week in February 1992.
