cycling among excluded groups [ here ]
More evidance that you need traffic free routes to appeal to normal people.
"We can therefore concludethat the groups traditionally regarded as
excluded or disadvantaged, namely women, BME groups, the old, the young, and people from more deprived areas, make different use of traffic-free routes."
"traffic-free route data highlights particular positives in terms of higher
than expected representation of female cyclists, elderly cyclists and BME group cyclists on
shopping trips, females and younger age groups on trips to educational establishments, and BME groups and younger age groups making commuting trips. Leisure trips are commonly undertaken by cyclists in older age groups and from areas with higher IMD values."
This reinforces Prof. Jo Woods work on Transport for London data where more women cycle in parks ( i.e traffic free routes).
