WHY BICYCLING IS “STAYING SAME” AND “GETTING WORSE”TOP 10
1. Poor driver behavior (inattentive driving,
aggression toward bicyclists)
2. Lack of maintenance for bike lanes/paths
3. We want protected bicycle lanes
4. Car traffic & volume has become worse/increase
5. Lack of bicycle lane/path expansion
6. My typical riding area seems the same
7. Lack of connectivity among bicycle lanes/paths
8. It’s not safe to bicycle on the west side
9. Lack of enforcement for bad drivers
10.Bicyclists don’t wear helmets or have lights
WHAT CAN WE DO?
More women bicycling = more people bicycling
Continue expanding and connecting bicycle infrastructure
Safety over convenience
Informal/formal
bicycling events
& advocacy
