I
am currently undertaking research into commuter cycling in Carlisle, as
a part of my MSc Urban Studies dissertation at University College
London (UCL).
The purpose of this post is to ask whether you would be interested in participating in this research focused upon how cyclists use and navigate through the combination of existing physical infrastructure, such as roads and the rules and conventions associated with cycling in an urban environment. In short, this research approaches infrastructure focused upon the user (the cyclist) as they move through this space from A to B, which offers the exciting possibility to encourage greater levels of cycling through exploring the engagement with junctions, rules and conventions.
Currently, this research is only focused upon individuals over the age of 18 and who regularly cycle to and/or from work in Carlisle.
What will participation involve?
An initial chat about what the research entails, expectations and any concerns, including Risk Assessment etc.
A video-recording by the researcher of the participant traveling either to or from work
An interview exploring both the video and wider issues associated with cycling (Ideally this would be a few days after the journey and be no more than an hour long)
If this is of interest to you or you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me through my email michael.nattrass.14@ucl.ac.uk.
