DESCRIPTION:An understanding of the bicycle level of service (BLOS) in urb
 an mobility can be useful in developing planning strategies for the promot
 ion of cycling commuting in a safe and healthy urban environment. This stu
 dy will offer a cycling infrastructure audit by analyzing perceptions of r
 esidents to ascertain level of performance of basic bicycle infrastructure
  in selected Nigerian cities. Participants of this study will be drawn thr
 ough a multi-stage sampling technique to evaluate their level of satisfact
 ion on basic urban cycling infrastructure\, based on knowledge of their ci
 ty. Geometric\, physical and operational characteristics of different road
  network\, walkways and trails will be assessed using a 6-point Likert sca
 le A-F (corresponding to highly satisfied-highly dissatisfied). Other vari
 ables for assessment will include (but not limited to) side path separatio
 n\, vehicle speed\, motorized traffic volume and conflicts with other road
  users. Furthermore\, pedestrian lane width\, wide outside lane\, pavement
  conditions\, trees and benches\, daylight\, gender and age of participant
 s will be critical for the BLOS estimation. Ordered probability models wil
 l then be used to estimate random parameters of bicycle LOS perception to 
 account for unobserved heterogeneity for all respondents. A non-motorized 
 transport policy formulation will be advocated for Nigeria\, among specifi
 c recommendations that will be based on study findings.
