They take up less space than cars, reduce noise pollution, and create a human-scale, people-friendly atmosphere. This paper provides an environmental and sustainable scan of the literature on bicycles using established systematic literature review approach. The main issues the existing literature is dealing with according to the identified clusters can be categorized into four main categories that rely on environment-oriented, infrastructure-oriented, safety-oriented and health-oriented research fields, where the majority of research has been focused during the analysis period.
