Planning for successful cycling infrastructure: Bendigo case study
Join us on Wednesday 22 April for the latest in our series of project outcome webinars, Planning for successful cycling infrastructure: Development of the Victorian Bicycle Simulation and Prioritisation Modelling Tool using Bendigo as a case study.
DATE: Wednesday 22 April 2026
DATE: 11.00 am to 12.00 pm.(AEST)
Background
Working towards the achievement of an ambitious active travel target of 25% of modes by 2030, Department of Transport and Planning partnered with RMIT to develop the Victorian Bicycle Simulation and Prioritisation Modelling tool using Bendigo as a regional case study.
The tool combines spatial, infrastructure and safety data integration, demand forecasting and econometric scenario projections to understand how to best achieve successful rollouts that maximise the benefits of cycling as a transport mode.
As the Modelling cycling investments in regional areas project concludes, the team will present their work developing the tool and how it has been used in Bendigo and answer questions from the audience.
