Welcome to the 12th International Cycling Safety Conference in Imabari

International Cycling Safety Community

Since 2012, the International Cycling Safety Conference (ICSC) has been a forum for scientists, policy makers and other cycling experts whose scientific and practical activities are aimed at making cycling safer. It has offered the opportunity for exchange and discussion, for getting to meet old friends and new collaborators. Over the years, hundreds of contributions have addressed novel research questions and presented innovative practical solutions dedicated to the improvement of cycling safety. 

ICSC 2024 hosted by IATSS

ICSC 2024, hosted by the International Association of Traffic and Safety Sciences (IATSS) on November 5 to 7 2024, will invite delegates from over the world to bike through Imabari, workshops, meet other people professionally interested in cycling safety, learn from each other and share knowledge.

Theme: Exploring Cycling Safety Culture

To date, there is an ever-increasing interest in research, from policy level to road and street level, on the issue of how to achieve safe cycling in society. Discussions on such research focus on defining the cycling safety culture, explore road user behaviour and the activities of people and organisations involved in road safety, and include an ongoing debate on how researchers around the world can contribute to safe cycling.
Therefore, by focusing on cycling safety culture, the conference hopes to provide an opportunity to gain a better understanding of the state of cycling safety in the world and to foster international collaboration among researchers to reduce cycling crashes and injuries.
