Identificação dos principais atributos para o projeto de uma rede cicloviária
Abstract
The aim of this research project was to identify what the key attributes that should be
considered in the design of a cycling network from the point of view of cyclists and transport
planning experts. The methodology for development of research consisted of: (1) application
of questionnaires to cyclists on the factors that influence the choice of your routes, (2)
application of questionnaires to experts about what attributes should be considered in
planning a cycling route urban area and (3) Analysis of the results using statistical methods.
The survey results were analyzed using the method of successive intervals, also applying t test
and ANOVA for comparison of results. From the results of these two studies was possible to
identify the aspects considered important for cyclists and experts, analyzing their divergences
and proposing guidelines for project cycling networks that meet the needs of cyclists and
attract new users.
