This special issue of Traffic Injury Prevention is dedicated to cycling safety. Twelve papers were selected from the more than 50 papers and 40 posters that were presented at the International Cycling Safety Conference on 10 and 11 October 2018 in Barcelona, Spain. It was the seventh edition of the conference, which is solely dedicated to research in cycling safety and brought together more than 150 researchers, practitioners and policymakers from all over the world. The researchers shared their latest findings and challenges on topics such as cyclist behavior, cyclist-driver interaction, road design and infrastructure, methodologies for naturalistic observation and simulation, all related to improve cycling safety. The papers in this special issue cover some of the relevant topics for cycling safety research. Hereafter follows a short introduction to these papers. (Author/publisher)
