The two organisations have created a survey which will collect the opinions, experiences and ideas of cyclists in the area which will then be compiled in a report to help shape policy and create a positive cycling culture in the City and Shire.

Those taking part in the survey will be asked for their insight into what motivates people to cycle, what the barriers are to increased levels of cycling, the views on the current cycling infrastructure and what role stereotypes of cyclists play in shaping the attitude and behaviours of other road users towards cyclists.
