One of the biggest impediments to developing a more cycle-friendly environment has been the lack of national standards, guidelines and training in this area for professional practitioners, such as engineers and planners. Recently a number of new initiatives in New Zealand have begun to fill this void. This paper summarises the development of these initiatives and outlines the various topics that they address. Specific points of difference to some of their overseas counterparts are also highlighted. Impressions on the success to date of these tools are also discussed, as well as thoughts for further development.
