Initial challenges and needs
The main issue faced by RRA LUR (Regional Development Agency of Ljubljana Urban Region) is to connect all 25 municipalities in the Ljubljana Urban Region (LUR) in a way that provides adequate infrastructure, such as cycling paths, e-bike stations, e-bikes etc. As the region is currently not well connected with biking lanes, the main aim is to persuade people to use bikes in combination with public transport, instead of using cars for commuting to work. The biggest challenge LUR is facing is that 84% of all trips from other Slovenian regions to the region are still made by car, and after the pandemic, this number has not decreased. In addition, approximately 70% of daily commutes to Ljubljana from the LUR are done by car. A regional bike-sharing scheme could thus also help to reduce the number of car users as it would give them an alternative option for long-distance commuting.
Innovation Developed
The LUR aims to construct adequate infrastructure at the destination (bicycle storage facilities, charging stations for electric bikes, etc.), and adapt cycling routes for a faster journey (wider cycle paths, flatter ramps, etc.). This will improve the time competitiveness of bicycles in combination with public transport versus cars in peak traffic hours to achieve greater use of electric bicycles.
