良好的城市设计有能力帮助提供包容性的旅行环境，但传统上忽视了骑自行车者的观点。本文从这样一个前提出发，即可以做更多的工作来理解和阐明骑自行车的人的经验和他们骑自行车的城市环境的看法，作为城市设计质量与交通规划和基础设施干预的更紧密联系的一部分。这一方法特别适用于老年骑自行车者，这一群体的需求往往得不到充分的了解，对他们来说，看法可能会极大地影响移动的行为。目前，关于建筑环境与老年人身体活动（包括骑自行车）之间关系的知识有限。随着欧洲国家面临人口老龄化相关的挑战，一些大都市地区，例如德国的慕尼黑，正在通过城市设计、政策和基础设施举措的结合，扩大自行车运动对几代人的吸引力。该文件提供了一个系统的了解城市设计质量和建筑环境的特点，影响骑自行车的参与，并有可能促进健康的老龄化。城市设计的特点，如易读性，美学，规模和开放的空间已被证明会影响和影响其他移动的行为（如步行），但他们的作用，作为一个调解人在周期行为仍然没有得到充分的探讨。这些设计“品质”中的许多都与个人的感知有关;捕捉这些可以帮助构建建筑环境的质量，包括个人与当地社区的关系及其对他们的移动选择的影响。无障碍、设施和骑自行车的安全问题仍然至关重要，当与这些设计“质量”结合时，可以更全面地反映日常旅程和所进行或期望的旅行。本文阐述了城市设计在调解这些关键的流动性问题，特别是在更好地理解“旅程质量”方面可能发挥的作用。报告最后强调，设计者、决策者、规划者和学者需要考虑设计在鼓励参与周期方面可以发挥的作用，特别是作为健康老龄化议程的一部分。
Good urban design has the power to aid in the provision of inclusive journey environments, yet traditionally neglects the perspective of the cyclist. This paper starts from the premise that more can be done to understand and articulate cyclists’ experiences and perceptions of the urban environment in which they cycle, as part of a closer linking of urban design qualities with transport planning and infrastructure interventions. This approach is particularly applicable in relation to older cyclists, a group whose needs are often poorly understood and for whom perceptions can significantly influence mobile behaviours. Currently, knowledge regarding the relationship between the built environment and physical activity, including cycling, in older adults is limited. As European countries face up to the challenges associated with ageing populations, some metropolitan regions, such as Munich, Germany, are making inroads into widening cycling's appeal across generations through a combination of urban design, policy and infrastructure initiatives. The paper provides a systematic understanding of the urban design qualities and built environment features that affect cycling participation and have the potential to contribute towards healthy ageing. Urban design features such as legibility, aesthetics, scale and open space have been shown to influence and affect other mobile behaviours (e.g. walking), but their role as a mediator in cycle behaviour remains under-explored. Many of these design ‘qualities’ are related to individual perceptions; capturing these can help build a picture of quality in the built environment that includes an individual's relationship with their local neighbourhood and its influences on their mobility choices. Issues of accessibility, facilities, and safety in cycling remain crucial, and, when allied to these design ‘qualities‘, provides a more rounded reflection of everyday journeys and trips taken or desired. The paper sets out the role that urban design might play in mediating these critical mobility issues, and in particular, in better understanding the ‘quality of the journey’. It concludes by highlighting the need for designers, policy makers, planners and academics to consider the role that design can play in encouraging cycle participation, especially as part of a healthy ageing agenda.
