4. www.bicy.it What should be avoided: Do collect data becaus it is possible to collect To do it only once (at the end of a project) To set up an expensive complex system

5. www.bicy.it Objective: Raise the share of cycle trips Household survey (travel diary) Interviews (BICY methode) Corridor counting Counting at destinations Check if there are available numbers of regulary surveys of the national statistic service
