Many growing cities of the twenty-first century have a common problem: the overwhelming favoritism of automobiles over other, more environmentally friendly and less congested methods of travel. Cars in large numbers cause traffic problems, accidents and pollution [1]. The bicycle is one of the most popular solutions to these problems, as it is economical for the user, healthy and represents a sustainable form of transport. The two main aspects to consider when encouraging cycling are the cost and feasibility of implementation and the overall effectiveness of the solution [2, 3]. Considering this, the most influential factors on cycling's modal share appear to be infrastructure and public initiatives to encourage cycling; Of these factors, the most effective and economical ways to encourage cycling are those that make cycling safer and more convenient for cyclists. If the potential power of the bicycle was ever in doubt, a cost-benefit analysis was carried out in large Chinese companies. City [2] to express the effectiveness of alternative modes of transport. In the study, bicycles were always more convenient than trains and only in some cases less effective than buses. Indeed, there are many advantages with few disadvantages; Faced with growing evidence of the utility of cycling, “many government agencies and public health organizations have explicitly advocated for increased cycling as a way to improve individual health and reduce air pollution, carbon emissions, congestion, noise, traffic hazards, and other harmful impacts of car use”[2]. It is clearly in the government's interests to encourage cycling, especially at the expense of single-occupancy vehicle use. ," Prev. Med., vol. 50, Supplement, pp. S106-S125, 1, 2010. [4] J.
