Abstract

Bicycling is a key component of sustainable mobility. This paper gives an insight into the importance of bicycle-friendliness, also known as "bikeability" and its qualitative components like perception and emotions of the riders. The research applies a multi-methodical framework on bicycling aiming to identify stressful events on a bicycle ride. The goal was to test new bio-physiological sensors (like EDA device, eye tracker etc.) to develop a methodology on how sensor technologies can be integrated in the data collection processes and to discuss their practicability. The experiences in this field can help to foster a long-term integration of sensor technology into travel survey methodologies and further into transportation planning.
