dc.description.abstract | The raising use of motorized mode and interrelated infrastructure leads to traffic jamming,
environment pollution and traffic accidents make a city worse for living. Mitigating these
problems make the city mobility improved and Addis Ababa city administration with cooperation
of Addis Ababa road transport bureau installed the first bicycle lane project from Lebu to Jemo
corridor to improve mobility on that streets, to reduce traffic congestion, to improve public
health and to make the city environment friendly. The purpose of the research is to assess the
bicycle lane benefit for improving city mobility after the project implementation and this
research use bikeability index to assess bikeability of the bicycle lane using measurements which
are the bikeability index variables. In order to make the indexes the research create different
variables through detail literature review and validated them through field observation,
interview with key informants and questionaries to pedestrian and cyclists in Lebu to Jemo
bicycle lane. Research finding indicate that the need of functional bicycle infrastructure to
enhance the mobility specially related to destination density design, environment design and
safety issues in the streets that encourage a rider to use bicycle as transport mode. In addition,
the finding show that the non -motorized strategy of Addis Ababa city administration. | en_US |
