Abstract
In cities with low cycling rates, and in particular in Barcelona, the share of males among cyclists is much higher than the share of females. Research has shown that the quality and level of segregation of the cycling infrastructure has an influence over the gender gap. The purpose of this study is to see whether the different kinds of cycling infrastructure in Barcelona have different gender gaps and if so, try to determine which characteristics influence the cycling gender gap.
