Definition
Infrastructure for active mobility, namely walking and cycling.
Parameter
The length of roads and streets with pavements, bike lanes, 30 km/h (20 mp/h) zones and pedestrian zones related to total length of city road network (excluding motorways).
Ram = Share of road length adapted for active mobility [n]
Lpv = Length of road network with pavements (not if in a pedestrian zone) [km]
Lbl = Length of road network with bike lanes (not if in a 30 km/h zone) [km]
Lz30 = Length of road network in 30 km/h zone [km]
Lpz = Length of pedestrian zone(s) [km]
Lrn = Total length of city road network (excluding motorways) [km]
Data sources
Information needed | Possible specific sources | Costs* | Advice to fill data gaps and/ or improve data quality |
Length of road network with pavement (not in pedestrian zone) | It should be feasible for local authorities to provide the total length of roads, pavements, bike lanes, 30 km/h zones and pedestrianised zones using spatial data. Unfortunately, there is no alternative source at the European Union level that compiles such data on the length of the pedestrian and cycling networks. | M |

* The column “Costs” provides a qualitative assessment of the budget (staff costs, time, costs for data acquisition, etc.) needed by a city/ urban area for gathering new quantitative data in absence of already available values. For each parameter, the assessment takes into account both the administrative costs and the costs related to searching, acquisition and processing of the needed data; these can be high (“H”), medium (“M”) or low (“L”), or a combination of a pair of them.
