Determinants of mode and route change following the opening of a new cycleway in Sydney, Australia

Conclusions Government agencies that want to give non-regular riders and more women the option to travel by bicycle should consider building separated cycleways. People will take a longer route to use separated cycleways, but to a lesser extent if they are commuting to work or study. Cycleway routes intended for commuting purposes should be as direct as possible.
