LJUBJANA URBAN LIVING LAB
Ljubljana ULL will explore the benefits of developing such a »green cycling corridor« as an alternative running in parallel to the south-ease avenue into the city. With the uses of recent advances in personal sensor devices for air quality and noise in combination with physical activity devices, the principles of impact evaluation will be used to compare both route alternatives.
Key Information
In order to make sure the increase in cycling as a means of transport in urban settings provides the health benefits cycling promises, better planning is needed to protect cyclists from variety of stressors. The »green cycling corridors« are used in many urban areas to restrict air and noise pollution from reaching roadside cyclists.
The assessment of the mitigation potential of the near-road vegetation barriers is therefore important to understand their effectiveness in reducing the exposure of roadside cyclists and pedestrians.
The Challenge
Transport modality-based individual-level contribution to resilience from stressors related to urban environment (air pollution, noise, heat-waves).
