The study focuses on predicting cycle path development for the year
2030 in Lublin by integrating land cover data with key factors such as
demographic trends, cycling path design guidelines, and topographic
features. The authors propose a novel method for identifying optimal
locations for new bike paths, emphasizing the prioritization of routes,
based on a demographic index across Lublin’s districts and on land
cover forecasts for 2030. This forward-looking approach ensures that the
proposed network aligns with future urban development and population
distribution patterns, creating a cycling infrastructure that is both
adaptable and responsive to the city’s evolving needs. As a result, the
study designates areas of approximately 30 km2 for the development of
cycle tracks, creating a comprehensive and flexible cycle infrastructure
that adapts to projected changes in land use.
