The potential modal shift and health benefits of implementing a public bicycle share program in Montreal, Canada.
This study estimated the modal shift associated with the implementation of a public bicycle share program in Montreal, Canada. ⋯ The implementation of a PBSP was associated with a shift toward active transportation. The modal shift was complex and not simply the result of a discrete shift from one mode to another. Promotion of active transportation should encourage integration of multiple active transportation modes to better reflect people's actual transportation behaviors.
