摘要:Uno dei maggiori problemi delle città attuali è legato alla mobilità/trasporti. La mobilità urbana si basa ancora in oggi in grandissima parte sull’uso dell’ automobile e il passaggio verso modi di trasporto più sostenibili sta avvenendo con grande lentezza. L’uso delle biciclette in città come mezzo di locomozione preferenziale, insieme alla pedonalità, si è dimostrato in molti centri urbani una carta vincente per abbattere fortemente congestione e traffico veicolare a motore. Data la grande densità di popolazione e la quota elevata di spostamenti di breve distanza, le città presentano maggiori possibilità di ridurre emissioni nocive in atmosfera, rispetto al sistema dei trasporti su lunga percorrenza, potenziando gli spostamenti a piedi, in bicicletta e con i mezzi pubblici.In quest’ottica sempre più progetti che mirano alla ciclabilità delle città sono stati direttamente finanziati dall’Unione Europea. Molti degli esempi presentati nel paper sono stati raccolti proprio grazie ad un progetto europeo che ha selezionato buone pratiche ed eccellenze di “cyclecities”, tra cui si ricordano Amsterdam, Copenaghen, Londra, Siviglia, città che hanno visto nella ciclabilità una soluzione alla congestione stradale. Ma come è possibile trasferire queste esperienze europee in Italia?Finalità dell’articolo è dimostrare la sostenibilità del cycling, sia in termini socio-economici (sostenibilità socio-economica) che ambientali (sostenibilità ambientale).A riguardo sarà proposta una metodologia CBA (Cost and Benefit Analysis) specifica atta a evidenziare i vantaggi che derivano da investimenti congiunti di soggetti pubblici e privati nel promuovere e realizzare infrastrutture ecologiche.
其他摘要:One of the main problems that affects modern cities is connected to transport/mobility. Urban transport is currently based on car use; the transition to the use of more sustainable means of transport is happening slowly. Bicycles used as main way of transport, combined with walking, it’s a successful solution for many towns to really bring traffic and congestion down. For their high density and their short time travels, towns are the best places (in comparison to long time travels as merchandise transport) to reduce the green houses gasses emitted promoting walking, cycling and public transport. For this reason the European Union is directly founding different projects that boost urban cycling. Many examples presented in this paper where collected by an European project. This project sectioned best practices and excellences in cycling as the so called cycle cities: Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Seville,…cities that have recognized the importance of cycling as a solution to traffic congestion. But how is it possible to transfer these experiences to others realities?The scope of this article is to show the sustainability of cycling according to socio-economic (social and economic sustainability) and environmental terms (environmental sustainability).For this reason is proposed a CBA (Cost and Benefits Analysis) methodology specific to evidence the advantages of investments in cycling made by public authorities or private companies both, to promote and realize ecological infrastructures.One of the main problems that affects modern cities is connected to transport/mobility.
