论文摘要
自行车是一种低成本的运输方式，与COVID-19传播的低风险有关。政府通过将街道空间重新分布作为其锁在后策略的一部分，激励了骑自行车。在这里，我们评估了临时自行车基础设施对欧洲城市骑自行车交通的影响。我们每天从106个欧洲城市的736个自行车柜台上刮擦每天的自行车数量。我们将其与已宣布并完成的弹出式自行车道工作项目的数据相结合。每个城市平均建造了11.5公里的临时弹出式自行车道。每个公里的城市骑自行车增加了0.6％。我们计算出，如果骑自行车习惯很粘，新的基础设施将每年产生23亿美元的健康福利。
The bicycle is a low-cost means of transport linked to low risk of COVID-19 transmission. Governments have incentivized cycling by redistributing street space as part of their post-lockdown strategies. Here, we evaluate the impact of provisional bicycle infrastructure on cycling traffic in European cities. We scrape daily bicycle counts spanning over a decade from 736 bicycle counters in 106 European cities. We combine this with data on announced and completed pop-up bike lane road work projects. On average 11.5 kilometers of provisional pop-up bike lanes have been built per city. Each kilometer has increased cycling in a city by 0.6%. We calculate that the new infrastructure will generate $2.3 billion in health benefits per year, if cycling habits are sticky.
