Abstract

Spatial planning, in addition to individual needs and habits, is a key aspect of shaping travel patterns. Especially in cities, features of the built environment and functions of places, as well as their mutual location, decide about the popularity of particular ways of traveling. Public transport, private cars, or non-motorized modes have their advantages over the specific conditions, in which the optimal means of transport may vary. The (re)gaining worldwide popularity of bicycles, arousing the interest of both transport geography researchers and local authorities, can play the role of an effective and easily accessible remedy for many problems related to the functioning of cities and life in them. Representing the economy of sharing, public bike systems meet the needs of residents who, due to the undoubted convenience of this solution, may decide to use them during their daily journeys. Poznań City Bike, operating since 2012, allows you to move between rental stations, located in the most important parts of the city, without the need to have your own vehicle. In this study, a travel analysis made as part of the said system in the season 2021 in selected districts in the north of the city was carried out, using GIS tools and statistical methods. The results indicate a significant relationship between the popularity of bike sharing and specific features of the built environment. The work allowed for the creation of the development conception of bicycle infrastructure in the area of the study.
