Not only policies to popularize bicycle use, but also the creation of bicycle infrastructure systems and the dissemination of activities that encourage bicycle use are very effective in changing the public's perspective on bicycle use. Therefore, there is a complex and multi-factor interaction affecting the use of bicycles for transportation purposes in cities. These factors include legal regulations, reports, strategies, plans and projects issued by local, regional, and national policymakers, and NGOs, as well as the natural, socio-cultural, and economic features of the city, user attitudes, and behaviours. This study aims to identify socio-cultural factors, one of the key elements to increase bicycle transportation seen as an sustainable mobility type, specifically in the city of Denizli. For this purpose, a face-to-face survey was conducted with 863 people in the districts of Merkezefendi (410 people) and Pamukkale (453 people), which constitute the city center of Denizli, and socio-cultural factors that were thought to have an impact on the public's use of bicycles were determined. According to the statistical analysis results, these factors converge under three sub-factors: peer pressure, physical appearance, and societal pressure. At the end of the study, recommendations were developed to contribute to the proliferation of bicycle usage in Denizli by reducing the impact of these factors.

Halkın bisiklet kullanımına bakış açısını değiştirmede sadece bisiklet kullanımının yaygınlaştırılması politikaları değil, aynı zamanda bisiklet altyapı sistemlerinin oluşturulması ve bisiklet kullanımını özendirici çalışmaların yaygınlaştırılması da oldukça etkilidir. Bu nedenle kentlerde bisikletin ulaşım amacıyla kullanımını etkileyen karmaşık ve çok faktörlü bir etkileşim söz konusudur. Bu faktörler, yerel, bölgesel ve ulusal politika yapıcıları ile özel ve sivil toplum kuruluşları tarafından çıkarılan yasal düzenlemeler, raporlar, stratejiler, plan ve projeler ile kentin sahip olduğu doğal, sosyo-kültürel ve ekonomik özellikler, kullanıcı tutum ve davranışları şeklinde sıralanabilir. Bu çalışmada sürdürülebilir ulaşım türü olarak görülen bisikletli ulaşımın yaygınlaşmasında temel unsurlardan biri olan sosyo-kültürel faktörlerin Denizli kenti özelinde belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaçla Denizli kent merkezini oluşturan Merkezefendi (410 kişi) ve Pamukkale (453 kişi) ilçelerinde 863 kişi ile yüzyüze bir anket çalışması yapılmış ve halkın bisiklet kullanımı üzerinde etkisi olduğu düşünülen sosyo-kültürel faktörler belirlenmiştir. Yapılan istatistiksel analiz sonuçlarına göre bu faktörlerin; arkadaş baskısı, fiziksel görünüş ve toplum baskısı olmak üzere üç alt faktör altında birleştiği görülmektedir. Çalışma sonunda bu faktörlerin etkisinin azaltılmasıyla Denizli kentinde bisiklet kullanımının yaygınlaşmasına katkı sağlayacak bir takım öneriler geliştirilmiştir.
