Estudo de viabilidade de implantação de uma ciclovia na cidade de Palmeira dos Índios - Alagoas

Abstract

The bike paths have gained great relevance over the years, this is due to the population increase and the development of cities, where it is necessary to search for sustainable transport alternatives. Based on this aspect, the study for the implementation of a bike path in the town of Palmeira dos Índios-AL is important, because if its viability is proven it can serve about 2,000 families located in two popular housing complexes on the city’s peripheral area. The main point of this study is to connect these housing complexes to the town center through a bike path, with this security can be offered and reduce the dependence of the population on irregular transport for the most part. In addition to serving this population, the bike path will be important for the whole town, since this bike path will pass through one of its main paths, thus increasing the use of bicycles in the town and reducing traffic in the region addressed, safely. From the surveys carried out with the population and with the Municipal Superintendence of Transport and Transit (SMTT) of Palmeira dos Índios and the studies carried out, it was possible to obtain the technical feasibility of the execution of this bike path proposed in this work.
