Abstract

Enhancing cycling is an increasingly important challenge, especially as it is promoted for its economic, environmental, and health benefits. However, ensuring safety of cyclists is crucial to support this shift in mobility. In this context, machine learning offers promising avenues. This study proposes a novel approach to identifying high-risk locations by dynamically incorporating spatio-temporal patterns and environmental conditions. The method was tested using comprehensive data from Germany, and its design suggests strong potential for generalization to different countries. This work can support urban planners, policymakers, and navigation systems in improving road safety and informing smarter mobility decisions
