Open publisher page 2 citations

Abstract

This paper discusses the results of a recent project on the integration of cycling and light rapid transit with particular reference to recent experience in the UK but drawing also on relevant lessons from other countries. It focuses on the safety implications for cyclists of LRT and LRT-related infrastructure, the advantages and disadvantages of existing and possible in-vehicle arrangements for bike access, and the requirements for cycle parking at LRT stops.
