摘要
For the determination of the most relevant aspects of Bicycle-Network Planning, a questionnaire regarding utilitarian trips (work and/or study related reasons) was answered by cyclists in the City of Sao Jose dos Campos. For the processing of responses, descriptive statistical analyses were conducted to represent sociodemographic profiles and posterior comparisons with the sample of cyclists from the Origin-Destination research held in 2011 for the same city. A hypothesis testing (inferential statistics) was also completed to verify the existence of significant opinion differences, due to the characteristics of the identified profiles, and a confrontation between the final results and the information gathered during the bibliographic review. The priority of the cyclists from the sample is to arrive as soon as possible to their destination through illuminated and safe paths, alongside pedaling the necessary minimum, preferably on streets with good pavement conditions.
