The need to implement sustainable mobility is growing in both urgency and pace. However, in cities where the bicycle is underused and cars are overvalued, trying to change the mobility paradigm comes with many challenges. Planners committed to creating cycling mobility plans have to overcome information and resource barriers in coming up with solutions in their respective contexts. Facilitating access to conceptual and practical information for such cities could provide impetus for more effective decisions. With a view to achieving this goal, the “BooST – Boosting Starter Cycling Cities” research project has developed a planning tool, the Cycling Measures Selector (CMS). The tool facilitates access to specific information on measures promoting bicycle use and provides practical guidelines on how to implement these measures in a comprehensive and effective manner. Through its web-based platform, the CMS presents detailed informational sheets on each measure and provides a structure for testing different combinations. Each combination receives a score and suggestions as to how to increase the efficiency. This paper presents the tool and assesses its utility or usefulness for strategic development. To this end, the inputs of three groups working in the cycling promotion area were taken into consideration: local planners, academics, and activists. A series of workshops provided the space to interact with the tool and explore its potential. Those experiences revealed an apparent disconnect between theory and practice, along with a clear need for detailed and varied information on cycling measures. The findings suggest that the CMS can fulfill that need, as well as aid in the planning process.

不仅仅是自行车基础设施:支持为初级自行车城市制定一揽子政策

实施可持续交通的紧迫性和速度都在增长。然而,在自行车使用不足和汽车被高估的城市中,试图改变移动范式带来了许多挑战。致力于制定自行车出行计划的规划者必须克服信息和资源障碍,在各自的背景下提出解决方案。促进获取此类城市的概念和实用信息可以推动更有效的决策。为了实现这一目标,“BooST – Boosting Starter Cycling Cities”研究项目开发了一种规划工具,即骑行措施选择器(CMS)。该工具有助于获取有关促进自行车使用的措施的具体信息,并提供有关如何以全面有效的方式实施这些措施的实用指南。通过其基于 Web 的平台,CMS 提供有关每个度量的详细信息表,并提供用于测试不同组合的结构。每个组合都会收到一个分数和关于如何提高效率的建议。本文介绍了该工具并评估了其对战略发展的效用或有用性。为此,考虑了在自行车推广领域工作的三个团体的投入:当地规划者、学者和活动家。一系列研讨会提供了与该工具互动并探索其潜力的空间。这些经历揭示了理论与实践之间的明显脱节,以及对有关自行车措施的详细和多样信息的明确需求。研究结果表明,CMS 可以满足这一需求,并有助于规划过程。
