Some parts do seem counter intuitive e.g. presence of junctions was not significantly associated with injury risk. And although the risks of serious injury on major streets with parked cars and bike lanes were found to be slightly higher than on major roads without parked cars, the latter were less liked by cyclists.<br /> Shared off-road paths were safer than on road cycling but not as safe as bike-only paths. And roads with tram tracks had three times risk of injury. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8968#post-91866 Thu, 22 Nov 2012 09:22:01 +0000 chdot 91866@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>"</p> <p>A new Canadian study confirms what cyclists intuitively know: providing quality cycling infrastructure reduces the risk of accidents and serious injuries. </p> <p>"</p> <p><a href="http://blogs.crikey.com.au/theurbanist/2012/11/22/does-cycling-infrastructure-reduce-serious-accidents" rel="nofollow">http://blogs.crikey.com.au/theurbanist/2012/11/22/does-cycling-infrastructure-reduce-serious-accidents</a> </p>
