Flows from the origins of cyclists to urban parks
Baru(2023)
Abstract
Components such as bicycle infrastructure should be valued more highly in the current context of Brazilian cities dominated by motorized traffic, which is why researches in the subject are so important. Because there have been no studies linking cyclists' origins to urban parks, the current study aims to identify cyclists' origins (neighborhoods and cities) and destinations (urban parks) in three urban parks at Porto Alegre/RS, as well as the modes of transportation they use to get there, in contrast to the estimated distance from their origin. A quantitative study was undertaken for this, with data gathered from surveys about cyclists' origins in each of the three urban parks, as well as information about the locations received from Google Maps, largely using data analysis software like QGIS and Excel. This technique shows that cyclists come from all regions of the city and surrounding cities, covering an average distance of 2,977 km, and that riding one's own bicycle is the most common way of transportation, meaning that green space is important. It is also necessary for cyclists, and the closer it is to the cyclist the urban park, the more frequently it is used.
