Geo-Design in Planning for Bicycling: An Evidence-Based Approach for Collaborative Bicycling Planning

In recent times, cities have increasingly promoted bicycling as a mode of transport part their strategy to develop more sustainable transportation system. Australia is one the countries that seeks promote in significant manner. There are two primary barriers faced this effort. The first organizational complexity planning and implementing cycling-related projects, which can span across different agencies government at various levels, from federal local. Second lack clear framework for effectively network using multiple data tools available these within limited budget. This study investigates use geo-design-based, collaborative, data-driven networks, brings stakeholders, such planners, urban designers, academics, into practice, thus overcoming mentioned barriers. Geo-design an environmental design complex problems involving collaboration teams supported by digital computing communication technologies. To best our knowledge, there no literature applying geo-design approach planning. Therefore, aims test networks examine possible scenarios facilitate decision-making processes. regard, developed bicycling-related datasets tools, Agent-Based Model. Then, it applied real-world bicycle through workshop while examining usefulness effectiveness procedures tools. Policymakers attended local authority case area, Penrith, post-graduate level students UNSW. Due COVID-19-related restrictions, was held hybrid format, with half participants joining online. results revealed facilitating approaches, proposed could improve process infrastructure. also enabled research team understand strengths limitations associated will help optimize them other practices future.
