Abstract

Under current transport conditions with high level of mechanization, traffic pressure increases rapidly which leads to low traffic efficiency and low resident travel efficiency. Especially for historic districts which located in the downtown areas with high intensity of land development and scarce land resources, main roads and minor roads are always under congestion and traffic delays on by-passes are caused by road occupation by motor vehicles. As a kind of environment-friendly, green and convenient public transportation, bicycles can relieve traffic jams effectively, improve environment quality and traffic efficiency and connect scenic spots. Based on investigations, this thesis demonstrates current situations of bicycle transportation system in quarter of City Wall of Ming dynasty, establishes networks assessment target system in accordance with related rules and builds analysis model with AHP Comprehensive Evaluation. In result, this thesis provides referential evidences for evaluation on making and implementation effectiveness of bicycle transportation system designs and plans in historic districts.
