Before constructing a new cycle lane, a comprehensive survey is essential to ensure it meets the needs of cyclists and integrates well with existing infrastructure. Here’s a detailed overview of how such a survey is has been conducted:

1. Site Assessment:
   • Existing Conditions: Evaluated the current road layout, traffic patterns, and land use. Looked at factors like road width, parking, and existing infrastructure.
2. Data Collection:
   • Traffic Counts: Measured the current traffic volumes, including the number of cyclists and motor vehicles.
   • User Surveys: Conduct surveys or interviews with current and potential cyclists to gather input on their needs, preferences, and concerns.

This thorough approach helped to ensure that the new cycle lane is safe, effective, and well-integrated into the existing transportation network.
