dc.description.abstract | Bicycle is a vehicle which can solve the transportation problems faced by many cities. Many Western European countries concerns about the environment and already focus shifted to bicycles. Unfortunately, cyclists rated as second-class road users in Lithuania. Bicycle is unsafe vehicle. In the case of collision with a car bicyclist is almost always have devastating consequences. The number of cyclists killed in the car accidents amounted to nine percent of all road users in Lithuania. For these reasons, the Lithuanian population is not so often choosing this vehicle. Bicycle paths infrastructure is not well developed and is not maintained frequently, they designed or built incorrectly. The main problem in Lithuania is that the cycling paths network is designed carelessly in separate sections, not really getting acquainted with the current situation. Planning under the following conditions leads to unavoidable curiosity situations which are explored in this work. The aim of the analysis is to provide an overview of urban cycling network condition paths defects and establish effective cycling network safety measures in Lithuania. The paper examines public opinion about the bicycles paths quality and planning features. | eng |
