The outbreak of the COVID-19 Pandemic has led to changes in people's lifestyles and behaviors. These changes have occurred in various fields, including transportation. There are several options for urban transportation, such as public and private transportation and bicycles, that different countries used different behaviors before and after Corona. This research aims to measure the impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on people's use of different modes of transportation and their comparison. For this purpose, a Likert scale questionnaire was used in Shiraz and Tehran, Iran and the participants were selected from users of the Bicycle Rental System. The study's results revealed a decrease in people's use of these bicycles during the COVID-19 Pandemic conditions. In the same period, people favored private cars and used fewer public transportation vehicles. Among the different urban vehicles available, public transportation was the most used before COVID-19, while personal transportation was used the most after Corona.
