Abstract
Around Europe, there has been a conscientious effort on behalf of urban municipalities to expand cycling infrastructure. While these policies in favour of cycling have been established in major cities in the Netherlands since the 1970s, nascent promotional campaigns in Lille, Bordeaux, Coventry and Leuven within the last ten years have yielded successful results in increasing participation among marginalised segments of society. These especially include children and women. Irish cities that roughly share the same population size as these cities, should take inspiration and consider introducing these initiatives to further increase rates of cycling.
