The inclusion of micro-mobility represents an important alternative for the decarbonization process, in addition to being an efficient means of transportation for citizens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bogota currently has one of the largest networks of bicycle routes in Latin America<\/strong>, and the authorities seek to continue promoting the use of light vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this regard, the District Mobility Secretariat of the Colombian capital<\/strong>, together with the European Federation of Cyclists<\/strong> are developing the “SCAP<\/strong>” project (Safer Cycling Advocate Program) that seeks to promote the bicycle as an alternative mode of transport, including for urban logistics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Bogot\u00e1 <\/strong>authorities, each plaza receives an electro-assisted cargo bicycle. These light vehicles must be used properly, in accordance with traffic, transport and road safety regulations<\/strong>. In addition, they will be covered by a single guarantee for damages caused to third parties<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Valentina Acu\u00f1a<\/strong>, Deputy Director of Private Transportation, reaffirmed her commitment to continue promoting sustainable mobility. “It is a great achievement to implement this pilot in the marketplaces, which shows that efficient and sustainable last-mile cycling is possible in the city.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This work has been advanced hand in hand with the Institute for Social Economy<\/strong> (IPES), the entity in charge of managing the market places that receive the cargo bicycles, according to some technical demographic specifications required by the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The use of bicycles for households in our District Market Places is of vital importance. In addition to promoting efficient mobility and reducing vehicular congestion, bicycles are a sustainable option that contributes to the care of the environment,” said Andrea Zharay Orejarena<\/strong>, Deputy Director of Entrepreneurship of the Institute for Social Economy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The District Mobility Secretariat will monitor and analyze users’ perception of these cargo bicycles during the pilot implementation period and will collect general data to define medium and long-term actions<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
