AB - Users’ perceptions are identified as key elements to understand bicycle use,
whose election cannot be explained with usual mobility variables and socio-economic
characteristics. A hybrid model is proposed to model the intention of bicycle use; it
combines a structural equations model that captures intentions and a choice model. The
framework is applied to a case of a university campus in Madrid that is studying a new
internal bike system. Results show that four latent variables (convenience, pro-bike,
physical determinants and external restrictions) help explaining intention to use bike,
representing a number of factors that are linked to individual perceptions.
