Bikeway Compatibility And Implementation Study On Selected Routes Of Addis Ababa

Studying suitability and ways of implementation of bikeway for transportation infrastructures found on selected Addis Ababa routes are the main underlying reasons behind why this research is conducted. The degree of these infrastructures ability to accommodate cycle facilities are identified and ways of implementing or providing the cycle facilities to the infrastructures are discussed.rnTo do these, assessment of different countries practice of bikeway provision methods for road segments, junctions and bridges, and ways of checking the suitability of these infrastructures to bikeways; identification of best methods and approaches based on the assessments made; and implementation study of bikeway to the infrastructures found on the selected routes based on identified best methods and approaches are done.rnThe analysis results show that almost all studied routes are moderately compatible and topographically suitable for bikeways, but some are more compatible and bikeable than the other. Routes selected from Addis Ababa‟s East-West are found to be more flat and bikeable than routes selected from North-South of Addis Ababa, and again routes selected from the newly developed areas, which are found at the outskirts of Addis Ababa, are found to be more bikeable than routes selected from the city centers
