摘要
随着城市车辆越来越拥挤，人们开始意识到由此产生的负面影响，许多人开始关注过去并未受到太多关注的自行车。作为城市内出行的一种选择。骑行者和希望骑行的人面临的主要问题是安全风险和不良体验。设置自行车专用道是一种广泛应用的降低自行车与机动车相撞风险的方法，事实证明，这种做法可以降低骑行者受伤的感知风险和实际风险。交通信号系统的开发旨在促进高效的交通流量，同时也有助于减少污染，为骑行者创造友好的环境。在公共交通枢纽建设自行车基础设施可以鼓励人们骑自行车上下班。如果这些措施得到适当的应用，骑行可以成为一种更具吸引力的交通方式。

Abstract
As cities get more and more congested with vehicles, people start to realise the negative effects this creates, and many start to examine cycling, which did not get much attention in the past, as a choice for travelling within a city. Major problems faced by cyclists and those who wish to cycle is safety risks and undesirable experience. A Separated cycle lane is a widely applied approach for decreasing the risk of cycles colliding with motorised traffic, and it has been shown that such a practice reduces both perceived and actual risk of cyclists getting injured. Traffic signal systems, which were developed to promote efficient flow of traffic, has the side effect of reducing pollution, which creates a friendly environment for cyclists. Implementing cycling infrastructures at public transportation hubs can encourage cycling for commuting. If such practices are applied properly, cycling can become a more attractive transportation mode.
