Demanda e inversión, un análisis del impacto de la implementación ciclo infraestructura en Barranquilla

Sustainable mobility is one of the main goals in the 2030 sustainable development goals, highlighting the promotion of zero-emission means of transport especially in urban areas, such as cycling, as a great transport solution. Experiences in different cities show that the presence of infrastructure, its width and the condition of the pavement are essential to generate demand. In the present research we studied the cyclist demand after a series of investments in infrastructure cycle in the city of Barranquilla, managing to identify variations in demand in addition to managing to estimate the average cost of generating an additional cyclist. By analyzing cyclists' capacity before and after implementing about 20 km of cycle-infrastructure it was possible to identify that the elasticity of demand depends on factors such as connections between destination origins, socioeconomic conditions of the area and the directivity of the route cycle path, and not only the existence of the infrastructure as such. The city of Barranquilla invested about $411,269,310 pesos (COP) enabling 9.23 km of additional cycle routes composed of 6 riders, some where demand increases and others where not; It is estimated that the investment managed to increase on average the number of cyclists by 22, Five an hour per runner. It was found that the costs of generating an additional cyclist in the life of the project were higher for 47th Street with $270 pesos, while for 44th Street it was $89 pesos, for 34th Street $23 pesos and finally the 22nd Street with a cost of $2 pesos. An exponential equation was proposed to understand the relationship between available infrastructure and demand, with good adjustment results.
