Achieving the Mayor’s Vision for Cycling in London (March 2013) will, amongst other things, require London practitioners to apply tried-and- tested techniques from around the world to the London context, and to innovate as necessary. To this end, TfL commissioned a study of selected cities, to understand better what makes for success in relation to cycle infrastructure, safety and culture. The study was tasked to focus on design approaches in cities with high levels of cycling and/or recent significant growth in cycling numbers.
