Abstract
Within the last 20 years, the amount of fatalities in traffic in total is decreasing in the Netherlands. However, the amount of fatalities of cyclists in traffic stays relatively constant. The three factors causing accidents involving cyclists within traffic are the bicycle, the infrastructure and the behaviour. The behavioural factor is the most important factor of the three, since behaviour causes most of the accidents involving cyclists. Within this study, the usage of behavioural knowledge within infrastructure is researched thoroughly by answering the following research question: 'To what extent do local governments utilize behavioural knowledge in infrastructure design in order to improve safety for cyclists?'
