CRUSE to safe cycling in Ireland: an open source methodology to support active travel

Abstract

This talk describes the design, features and potential use of the Cycle Route Uptake and Scenario Estimation (CRUSE) Tool for Ireland, commissioned to support cycle network planning, safety interventions, business cases and project evaluation. The resulting web application is available at https://cruse.bike/, enabling planners, engineers, and other stakeholders to make more evidence-based decisions.
