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. It also draws attention to the benefits
of cycling, which should be promoted as an important mode of transport given its
potential to improve health and preserve the environment.
