Highlights ► Both bike parking and cyclist showers at work are related to more bicycle commuting. ► Joint supply of showers and bicycle parking is related to more bicycle commuting than bike parking alone. ► Free car parking at work is associated with 70% smaller odds for bicycle commuting. ► Workplace transit commuter benefits appear to be not related to bicycle commuting.

    Abstract This article examines the role of bicycle parking, cyclist showers, free car parking and transit benefits as determinants of cycling to work. The analysis is based on commute data of workers in the Washington, DC area. Results of rare events logistic regressions indicate that bicycle parking and cyclist showers are related to higher levels of bicycle commuting—even when controlling for other explanatory variables. The odds for cycling to work are greater for employees with access to both cyclist showers and bike parking at work compared to those with just bike parking, but no showers at work. Free car parking at work is associated with 70% smaller odds for bike commuting. Employer provided transit commuter benefits appear to be unrelated to bike commuting. Regression coefficients for control variables have expected signs, but not all are statistically significant.
