The research explores how dedicated cycling infrastructure can contribute to safer, more sustainable, and inclusive urban transport in a context dominated by motorized vehicles. Using in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, and field observations, the study captures the perspectives of students, urban planners, and local stakeholders to identify existing challenges, user needs, and opportunities for promoting cycling. Drawing on these insights, it proposes design interventions for key corridors PIA Road and UMT Road featuring continuous, protected cycling lanes, secure and weather-protected parking facilities, and improved connectivity to residential and commercial areas. The findings indicate a strong willingness among students to adopt cycling, provided adequate infrastructure and safety measures are implemented. The study concludes that a thoughtfully planned cycling network can enhance accessibility, alleviate traffic congestion, promote healthier lifestyles, and support environmental sustainability. It underscores the importance of phased implementation, consistent maintenance, policy alignment, and stakeholder engagement to ensure long-term effectiveness and adoption.en-USThesis
