Civil Engineering bicycle survey stated preference survey foot-in-the-door method Dayton intercept survey intercept survey Over the past 20 years, there has been increased funding for bicycle facilities which has led to more miles of bicycle facilities. Consequently, there are more needs for understanding the people who use these facilities. Counts can be used to know how many people are using these facilities, but surveys are one of the better methods for a more in- depth understanding. Intercept surveys have been typically used in the past but there are limitations with this method. In order to improve upon this method, an initial interview was used in conjunction with the foot-in-the-door method and an online survey. The online survey included bicycle surveys along with a stated preference survey that analyzed the switching point time from one bicycle facility to another. The survey was conducted at Eastwood MetroPark in Dayton, Ohio and at Xenia Station in Xenia, Ohio in August of 2015.There were 780 initial interviews conducted. The bicyclists’ purposes were mostly for recreation or exercising with some work commuters. There were 750 postcards distributed to participants for the online survey with a total response rate was 36.4% and 273 participants for the online survey. There was no significant difference found in the switching point time analysis. Overall the methods used were useful for recruiting participants for the online survey. 2016-09-23 English text Ohio University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ohiou1470257342 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ohiou1470257342 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
