Abstract

There are vast numbers of cycles and cyclists in Indian cities. The cycle is one of the main components of vehicles flow in these cities. The ASRTU/TRRL research team, based in Delhi during 1978-80, implemented surveys of cyclists in the three cities, Delhi, Jaipur and Hyderabad, to collect data regarding: cycle ownership and usage; trip making details; socio-economic characteristics of the cyclist; how cycle ownership is reflected in the patronage of public transport services by cyclists.
