Journal Article
Meade, S., & Stewart, K. (2018). Modelling Cycling Flow for the estimation of cycling risk at a meso urban spatial level. Transportation Research Procedia, 34, 59-66. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.trpro.2018.11.014

One of the prevailing challenges in cycling research, or indeed any vulnerable road user research, is the availability of data to ascertain a representative level of 'exposure' or simply how much cycling there is – " when and where ". Therefore, it i... Read More about Modelling Cycling Flow for the estimation of cycling risk at a meso urban spatial level.

Investigating undesired spatial and temporal boundary effects of congestion charging (2014)
Journal Article
Ge, Y., Stewart, K., Sun, B., Ban, X., & Zhang, S. (2016). Investigating undesired spatial and temporal boundary effects of congestion charging. Transportmetrica B: Transport Dynamics, 4(2), 135-157. https://doi.org/10.1080/21680566.2014.961044

Two types of reported problems are related to the existing congestion charging projects that levy traffic only in a certain area within one or a few time periods during the day. One is that travellers depart earlier or later than a charging period to... Read More about Investigating undesired spatial and temporal boundary effects of congestion charging.

Cycle lanes: their effect on driver passing distances in urban areas. (2014)
Journal Article
Stewart, K., & McHale, A. (2014). Cycle lanes: their effect on driver passing distances in urban areas. Transport, 29(3), 307-316. https://doi.org/10.3846/16484142.2014.953205

The current literature in the field of cycle lanes has often shown contradictory evidence as to the benefits and risks of cycle lanes and previous work has specifically shown that on higher speed roads, drivers may pass closer to a cyclist when a cyc...
