Considering the sustained and pervasive popularity of the private vehicle not only in Malaysia National University (UKM) but in most of Malaysian Universities, what makes people prefer to use a Bicycle rather than car or public transport? What will facilitate the use the bicycle paths to the promotion of more sustainable behavior and the achievement of the green transportation targets? In this paper, a web-based advisory expert system for the purpose of applying Geometric Design of bicycle paths on residential streets is described because of their currently a weakness in the educational outcomes and structured framework for the implementation of such strategies . Developing an expert system can assist and advise engineers for dealing with geometric design problems. This expert system is developed to fill the gap between the sustainable urban design experts and people who seek to employ Geometric Design of bicycle paths including decision makers, engineers, and students. The system has more than six main functions including classifying, bicycle paths width, Separation from road way, Horizontal alignment, sight distance, and grades design .Verifying, validating processes, and comparing the system with similar works have shown that the system is consistent and acceptable for practical uses. In order to build the expert system, examining sources related to bicycle sharing path studies as well as interviewing with domain experts have been carried out. The system includes rules and images for different types of measures finally, some recommendations for improving the system are presented.
