A influência das variáveis urbaní­sticas na mobilidade não motorizada em São Paulo: uma reflexão a partir da formulação dos Eixos de Estruturação da Transformação Urbana (PDE - Lei 16.050/2014) / The influence of urbanistic variables over non-motorized mobility in São Paulo: a reflection around the formulation of the Structuring Axes of Urban Transformation (Strategic Master Plan - PDE - Lei 16.050/2014)

Guerra, Mariana Falcone 20 July 2018 (has links)
As estratégias propostas pelo novo PDE (Lei 16.050/2014) procuram incentivar a mobilidade não motorizada através de mudanças relacionadas ao uso do solo e desenho urbano. Nesses termos, o objetivo geral da tese é verificar a relação entre forma urbana e mobilidade ativa em São Paulo. Para tanto, busca verificar a influência da densidade urbana, uso misto e geometria viária na circulação não motorizada. A hipótese pleiteada é que uma maior densidade urbana e mistura de usos, associadas a uma estrutura viária mais densa, corresponde a uma maior proporção de deslocamentos a pé e de bicicleta. A metodologia utilizada é analítica - quantitativa. Os dados da Pesquisa Origem Destino do Metrô de 2007 (OD2007) foram organizados por grupos de variáveis temáticas, e submetidos a análises estatísticas bivariantes e multivariantes, em que uma ou mais variáveis independentes (urbanísticas e socioeconômicas) são relacionadas com uma variável dependente (porcentagem de deslocamentos não motorizados até 2,5 km), de forma independente e combinadamente. Os resultados mostraram que as variáveis socioeconômicas são as que mais exercem influência no deslocamento não motorizado no Aglomerado Metropolitano de São Paulo (AMSP), mas as variáveis urbanísticas também têm um grau de influência significativo, principalmente no Centro Expandido. Isoladamente, no entanto, poucas alcançaram altos níveis de associação com a variável dependente, o que significa que as variáveis urbanísticas só são capazes de fomentar o deslocamento não motorizado quando atuam conjuntamente, corroborando a importância de ambientes que combinam alta densidade urbana, usos diversificados e boa acessibilidade. / The Sao Paulo\'s new Strategic Master Plan (PDE) seeks to incentivize non-motorized mobility through changes related to land use and urban design. The ame of this thesis is to check the relationship between urban form and active mobility in the city of São Paulo. To do this, the thesis seeks to verify the influence of urban density, mixed use and street geometry over non-motorized circulation. The sought hypothesis is that greater urban density and mixed use, combined with dense street geometry, correspond to higher proportion of journeys by foot and bicycle. The methodology used is analytical-quantitative. Data from Metro\'s 2007 Study of Origin-Destination (OD2007) was organized by thematic variable groups, and submitted to bivariant and multivariant statistical analyses, in which one or more independent variables (urban or socioeconomic) are related to one dependent variable (percentage of non-motorized journeys up to 2.5 km), both independently and combined. The results showed that socioeconomical variables have the most influence over non-motorized movement within São Paulo\'s Metropolitan Cluster (AMSP), but the urbanistic variables also have a significant degree of influence, especially in the Expanded Center. Taken in isolation, however, few achieved high levels of association with the dependent variable, which means that urbanistic variables are only able to foster non-motorized movement when acting together, corroborating the importance of environments which combine high urban density, diverse uses and good accessibility

Les réseaux transnationaux du vélo : Gouverner les politiques du vélo en ville : De l’utopie associative à la gestion par les grandes firmes urbaines (1965-2010) / The transnational bike networks : Governing the urban bike policies : From associative utopia to the management of large compagnies (1965-2010)

Huré, Maxime 04 October 2013 (has links)
Le développement du vélo en ville constitue aujourd’hui un impératif pour les élus, notamment au regard des injonctions en faveur du développement durable. Dans les années 2000, les dispositifs de vélos en libre service se sont imposés dans la majorité des villes européennes. Si leur développement a été guidé par des considérations écologiques, ces dispositifs valorisent plus généralement l’innovation politico-institutionnelle et le dynamisme économique des villes. Ces dispositifs se sont imposés grâce à des réseaux transnationaux structurés autour de la thématique du vélo. Ces réseaux invitent à considérer les échanges transnationaux comme vecteurs de transformations dans l’action publique urbaine. Les préoccupations pour le développement du vélo ont une histoire qui s’inscrit dans une série d’interactions entre les villes depuis les années 1970. L’analyse de la formation et des effets des réseaux transnationaux du vélo permet de définir des périodes et des régularités dans ces recompositions qui affectent à la fois les politiques du vélo en ville et l’organisation des pouvoirs politiques urbains. Une première période structurée par l’activité transnationale des associations de défense du vélo invite à comprendre le rôle des échanges dans la définition d’un problème public puis sa mise à l’agenda dans l’ensemble des villes européennes au cours des années 1970. Le traitement des problèmes pousse les élus et les agents administratifs à s’investir dans les échanges transnationaux pour construire une nouvelle compétence municipale fondée sur les expertises associatives. Cet investissement des municipalités caractérise la deuxième période, dans laquelle les municipalités s’affirment dans la mise en œuvre des politiques publiques du vélo en institutionnalisant des réseaux de collectivités au cours des années 1980-1990. Enfin, une troisième période s’engage à partir des années 2000 avec l’arrivée des entreprises du mobilier urbain et de l’affichage publicitaire dans les échanges transnationaux. Cet investissement des entreprises engendre une intense circulation des systèmes de vélos en libre service et confronte les élus urbains à l’exercice d’une régulation des relations avec ces grandes firmes, autant dans les interactions transnationales que dans celles qui se déroulent sur les territoires pour la gestion des services urbains. Ces réseaux transnationaux du vélo sont un moyen d’organiser les pouvoirs locaux et de légitimer les élus municipaux dans la conduite de l’action publique urbaine. / Today, development of urban cycling is a must for politicians, particularly considering injunctions in favor of sustainable development. In the 2000s, bike sharing systems emerged in most European cities. If development was guided by ecological considerations, more generally, these services add value to political and institutional innovation and to the economic vitality of cities. Bike sharing systems were imposed thanks to transnational networks around the theme of the bike. These networks invite us to consider transnational exchanges as vectors of change in urban policies. The development of cycling has a history which is the result of many interactions between cities since the 1970s. The analysis of the creation and the effects of bicycle transnational networks allows us to define time periods and patterns in the evolutions that affect both urban cycling policies and organization of urban political power. A first period, structured by transnational activity of urban cyclist associations, helps us to understand the role of these interactions in the definition of a public issue, and of the inclusion of these questions in the agenda of many European cities during the 1970s. Problem solving encourages decision makers to engage in transnational exchanges to build a new municipal jurisdiction based on associative expertise. This municipal investment characterizes the second period, in which municipalities intensify the implementation of cyclist public policies by institutionalizing city networks in the years 1980-1990. Finally, a third period begins in the 2000s, with the appearance of companies in the area of urban furniture and outdoor advertising in transnational exchanges. These firms generate a heavy circulation of bike sharing systems, and pose the question for decision makers how to manage their relationships with these large companies, both on a transnational level and as far as the management of urban services is concerned. These bicycle transnational networks are a way to organize local authorities and to legitimate decision makers in the management of urban public policies.

Non-motorised transport as key element to an integrated rapid public transport network: the Cato Manor case

Cele, Nomfundo Gugulethu Precious 12 1900 (has links)
In South Africa, non-motorised transport (NMT) modes such as cycling and walking are generally used by poor people to access centres of employment, public services (for example, library, educational institutions, public transport) and other amenities as well as for recreational activities. Notably, the lack of integration among the different public transport modes (namely, NMT, bus, train and minibus) creates a major obstacle in the provision of an integrated, sustainable and effective public transport system. Likewise, the absence of proper recognition of NMT in government and social strata creates a problem in the supply of a satisfactory public transport service, that is, a public transport service that meets the needs of all users. Motivated by the gap in NMT integration with the overall public transport system, the study was undertaken to explore enabling factors to integrate NMT as a key element of the Integrated Rapid Public Transport Network (IRPTN). Social and political factors were explored, specifically, post-modern theory in urban transport planning and policy. In addition, the study explored enabling factors to integrate NMT as a feeder service and key element of an IRPTN from the perspectives of the participants of the study. The results of the study showed that infrastructure, the environment, promotion, and safety and security were identified as enabling factors to integrate NMT as a key element of an IRPTN. According to the results, government needs to promote NMT use. Subsequently, construction and the repair or widening of sidewalks and roads needs to be done. The results also showed that attractive NMT environments are necessary as well as adequate safety and security measures along NMT routes. It is suggested that a seamless, safe, inclusive, affordable, effective and reliable public transport system could be provided once these enabling factors are in place. Further research is advised, within the wider public transport population in eThekwini, as well as other NMT and public transport systems. The emphasis of this research should be on finding out whether the broader public transport population responds in the same way to the idea of integrating NMT and public transport. / Transport Economics, Logistics and Tourism / M.

Secondary task engagement, risk-taking, and safety-related equipment use in Gerrnan bicycle and e-scooter riders - an observation

Huemer, Anja Katharina, Banach, Elise, Bolten, Nicolas, Helweg, Sarah, Koch, Anjanette, Martin, Tamara 02 January 2023 (has links)
lt has been shown that engagement in secondary tasks may contribute to cyclists crash risk [1 ], meditated by cycling errors or risky behaviors. For influences on secondary task: engagement, it is generally found that phone use is negatively correlated with age. In most studies, males are more found engaged in phone tasks than females. lt was also found that users of a bicycle-sharing program more often to wear headphones and engage in more unsafe behavior. The use of safety gear (e.g., wearing a helmet, using reflectors) is often negatively correlated with distracted cycling. Also, cyclists engaged in a secondary task exhibit other risky behaviors more often [2]. The present study's first aim was to get (an updated) estimate of the observable frequency of different secondary tasks, use of additional safety equipment, and rule violations while riding bicycles and e-scooters in Germany. The second aim was to examine possible differences in secondary task: engagement, use of additional safety equipment, and rule violations between different types of users of the cycling infrastructure, i.e., riders of conventional bikes, e-bikes, scooters, and e-scooters. A third aim was to explore whether riders' secondary task engagement is related to active safety precautions (e.g., wearing a helmet), traffic rule violations, and at-fault conflicts and if there are rider profiles regarding safety-related behaviors. As the study is explorative, no hypotheses were formulated. [From: Introduction]

En rullande cykel : Cykelreparation för den oinsatte

Mattsson, Ludvig January 2022 (has links)
It is no secret that the world is facing major climate challenges. One of the aspects that can contribute to a greener future is to reconsider our means of transport. That bicycles is part of the solution and also contributes to the public health is something that is gaining more and more traction in society. An aspect though, that has received far too little attention and is the basis of this work is broken-down, stationary bicycles. Something that neither benefits the individual nor society at large. What this work aims to explore is why this happens, how it can be avoided and how to get bike owners to actually repair their bikes. This through a user-centered design process that is based on the users' situation and needs. This project is a bachelor’s thesis within industrial design engineering that has been carried out during spring 2022 at Luleå University of Technology. Through a user-centered process based on several methods such as guerilla interviews, participatory observation, and context research, a broad picture of the current situation was created. Based on this, creative methods such as brainstorming and workshops were then used to create a large number of ideas based on the users' needs. A thorough idea evaluation, mockups and a dot-voting then sifted these ideas down to a final concept where wireframes and prototyping ensured that the concept could be realized. The result of the project was the following; users don’t repair their bikes because they are insecure, lack knowledge and do not trust their abilities. They consider repairing to be a project that feels tedious and difficult to begin with. The users need a simple, clear solution that creates security and presents relevant information. The solution landed in the concept  A rolling bicycle consisting of two parts and a total of three steps. The first part is a number of posters to create incentives to repair one's bike and the second part an application that contains both a guide before the repair, but also instructions during the repair itself. The flow is a result of the needs and function analysis that was carried out and whose components are intended to meet the needs and conditions of users to get more people to fix their bike. / Att världen står inför stora klimatutmaningar är ingen hemlighet. En av de aspekter som kan bidra till en grönare framtid är att se över vårt val av transportmedel. Att cykeln är en del av lösningen och som även bidrar till folkhälsan är något som får allt större plats i samhället. En aspekt som fått allt för lite uppmärksamhet och som är grunden till detta arbete är trasiga, stillastående cyklar. Något som varken gynnar individen eller samhället i stort. Det här arbetet utforskar varför detta sker, hur det kan undvikas och hur man kan få cykelägare att faktiskt reparera sin cykel. Detta genom en användarcentrerad designprocess som utgått från användarnas situation och behov. Projektet är ett examensarbete på kanditatnivå inom utbildningen teknisk design. Projektet har utförts under läsperiod 4, vårterminen 2022 på Luleå tekniska universitet. Genom en användarcentrerad process grundad i flertalet metoder såsom gerillaintervjuer, deltagande observationer, och kontextundersökning skapades en bred bild av nuläget. Baserat på detta gjordes sedan kreativa metoder såsom brainstorming och workshops för att skapa ett stort antal idéer utifrån användarnas behov. En grundlig idéavaluering, mockups samt en dot-voting sållade sedan ner dessa idéer till ett slutkoncept där wireframes och prototypande såg till att konceptet kunde förverkligas. Resultatet av arbetet blev följande; användarna reparerar inte sina cyklar för att de är osäkra, saknar kunskap och inte litar på sin egen förmåga. De anser lagning vara ett projekt som känns jobbigt och svårt att påbörja. Användarna har ett behov av en enkel, tydlig lösning som skapar en trygghet och presenterar relevant information. Denna lösning landade i konceptet En rullande cykel som består av två delar och totalt tre steg. Den första delen är ett antal affischer för att skapa incitament till att laga sin cykel och den andra delen en applikation som innehåller både en guide inför reparation, men också instruktioner under själva reparationen. Detta flöde är ett resultat av den behovs och funktionsanalys som utfördes och vars komponenter har som avsikt att bemöta användarnas behov och förutsättningar för att få fler att laga sin cykel.

Programa ciclovida como política de mobilidade urbana sustentável: estudo empírico na Universidade Federal do Paraná / Ciclovida program as sustainable urban mobility policy: empirical study at the Federal University of Parana

Nakamori, Silvana 01 September 2015 (has links)
A mobilidade urbana tem na bicicleta o seu símbolo de meio de transporte ecologicamente mais sustentável do planeta, título conferido pelas Organizações das Nações Unidas (ONU). No entanto, as cidades sofrem com congestionamentos decorrentes do crescimento da frota automobilística, que ocasiona um tempo maior de deslocamento, prejuízos para o meio ambiente, financeiros e de qualidade de vida. A fim de moldar de forma sustentável a mobilidade urbana, fazem-se necessárias políticas públicas que incentivem a sociedade a utilizar, preferencialmente, o transporte coletivo ou o não motorizado. No intuito de colaborar com o poder público e com a sociedade civil, intenta-se neste estudo, por meio de análise sobre o Programa de Extensão Universitária da UFPR – Ciclovida, propor a elaboração de uma política pública de mobilidade urbana sustentável, com ênfase no uso da bicicleta. Referencialmente, discutem-se os conceitos de Sociedade, Estado e Governo, bem como as políticas públicas, que vão das responsabilidades do Estado e Governo aos ciclos, e apresentam-se as Políticas Públicas de Mobilidade Urbana Sustentável (PPMUS) no Brasil. Aborda-se também o transporte cicloviário como opção de mobilidade sustentável. Metodologicamente, o estudo é de cunho empírico-social, com emprego do método qualitativo e observacional, caracterizando-se, ainda, quanto ao nível de pesquisa como exploratório, tendo o envolvimento da pesquisadora na forma participante, haja vista sua atuação no Programa objeto. Quanto ao delineamento da pesquisa, deu-se de forma bibliográfica, documental e estudo de caso, utilizando-se da amostragem não paramétrica por acessibilidade ou conveniência. Quanto à técnica de coleta de dados, fez-se uso de entrevistas estruturadas com questionário autoaplicado e observação participante natural. Consoante ao objetivo e à questão de pesquisa, o resultado confirmou que o Programa Ciclovida da Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR) pode contribuir efetivamente na formulação de uma proposta de PPMUS com ênfase no uso da bicicleta. Assim, construiu-se uma proposta de política com redação de forma livre, a fim de subsidiar políticas tanto institucionais quanto públicas de MUS por meio do uso da bicicleta e assim auxiliar na mobilidade, contribuindo, também, com a sustentabilidade e com o planejamento de desenvolvimento público. / The urban mobility has in the bicycle its symbol of the most environmentally sustainable modal of transportation of the planet, title conferred by the United Nations Organization (ONU). Nevertheless, the cities suffer with the traffic jam caused by the automobile fleet growth, what implies in a larger displacement time, injuries to the environment, to financials and to the quality of life. In order to build in a sustainable way the urban mobility, public policies are necessary to encourage the preferential usage, by the society, of the mass transit or the non-motorized type of transportation. Objecting cooperate with the public power and the civil society, this study intents to, through an analysis about the UFPR Extension Program - CICLOVIDA, propose a sustainable urban mobility public policy development, with emphasis in the bicycle´s usage. eferentially, it is discussed concepts such as Society, State and Government as well as public policies, which go in cycles to the State´s and Government´s responsibilities; and are presented the Sustainable Urban Mobility Public Policies (PPMUS) in Brazil. Also, it is debated about the transport by bicycle as an option to the sustainable mobility. Methodologically, the study is of an empiric-social nature, with the application of both qualitative and observational methods, what characterizes as an exploratory level of research, with the researcher´s involvement in the participant form, due to her acting on the Program. Regarding the research lineation, it was used the bibliographic and documental form as well as case study, by means of the nonparametric sampling by accessibility or convenience. Related to the data collection technique, it was used structured interviews with self-applied questionnaires and natural participant observation. Aligned with the research´s objective and matter, the outcome confirmed that the Extension Program CICLOVIDA of the Federal University of Paraná (UFPR) may effectively contribute in the development of a PPMUS proposal with emphasis in the bicycle usage. Thus, it was built a political proposal with a free form writing, objecting subsidize policies both institutional as public MUS through the bicycle usage and therefore, support the mobility, also contributing to the sustainability and to the public development planning.
