Pg. 15-24: Cyclist safety: An information resource for decision-makers and practitioners

Cyclist safety: an information resource for decision-makers and practitioners describes the magnitude of cyclist death and injury, the key risk factors, and effective interventions. The document stresses the importance of a comprehensive, holistic approach that includes legislation, enforcement and behavioural measures specifically for cyclists; design of the built environment; as well as integrating cyclist safety into overall road safety and transport strategies.

Pg 25-26: Strategies for Accelerating Multimodal Project Delivery

Motorists, freight, transit passengers, bicyclists, and pedestrians, including individuals with disabilities, have unique needs, and infrastructure is being adapted to the multimodal nature of travel. The project development process for multimodal projects - those intended to serve bicyclists and pedestrians - can experience delays and challenges as projects move from one phase to the next.
