Om denne e-bog

Bicycle Cities explores how urban areas can thrive by prioritizing cycling through strategic urban planning. It argues that transitioning to bicycle-centric urban planning involves a comprehensive shift in urban design, policy, and culture, not just installing bike lanes. The book highlights intriguing facts, such as how bicycle infrastructure can boost local retail sales and property values while reducing carbon emissions. It also emphasizes the importance of protected bike lanes, dedicated bicycle highways, and secure bicycle parking facilities. The book takes a holistic approach, integrating practical guidance with theoretical insights, and examines successful case studies like Copenhagen and Amsterdam to demonstrate the benefits of bicycle urbanism. By providing data-driven analyses of bicycle ridership and cost-benefit evaluations, the book offers a roadmap for cities seeking to become bike-friendly. It begins by introducing bicycle urbanism and progresses through analyzing successful cities, focusing on practical infrastructure design, and exploring the economic, health, and environmental impacts of cycling. The book's unique value lies in its synthesis of practical guidance with theoretical insights, making it an invaluable resource for urban planners, policymakers, and cycling advocates seeking to create more sustainable and livable cities. Aligned with the genres of Politics, Architecture General, Architecture, the book also uses visual elements like maps and photographs to showcase innovative bicycle infrastructure design.
