Definición y etiología

The key method of this study was based on finding conflicts during the implementation of MCRs and using detailed design-based solutions to solve identified conflicts. The literature review identified the benefits of cycling in the urban environment, the importance of cycling safety, the methods of cycle-friendly route designs, the policies and design guidelines for cycleways in Christchurch, and international design exemplars that provided a reference for improving future design of MCRs. The analysis provided insights into how hot spots and conflicts were identified and filtered. The key was to utilize local Christchurch news articles as the conflict searcher and to use site surveys as the conflict filter. Related planning documents for selected hot spots were used for further analysing.

The scope of discussion mainly encompassed the development of design-based solutions for conflict areas along the Papanui Parallel Cycleway in Christchurch. Key designs included elevated cycle path with chevron, two-way cycle path with kerbs or chevron, obvious signages and surficial guidance. For larger-scale design decisions, I believe the design suggestions I have made for 969 Colombo and 5/63 Rutland Streets can be considered in other areas where MCRs meet small buildings with public services. Solutions for 49 Rutland Street can be used in areas with schools or childcare centres. Low-grade solutions for 96 Trafalgar Street can be applied to shared-way areas that have low vehicle traffic volumes. In addition, the ‘Madrid Rio Park model’ can be considered in some key areas where more outdoor activities and public interactions are recommended. For example, using the method of creating vertically separated spaces for areas around Cathedral Square or large shopping malls, connecting both sides of Avon River at some key points by applying the

method of pedestrian and cycling bridge, and implementing the shared-path method near some urban parks or waterfront spaces. Ultimately, all above designs should link to the whole MCR system and aim at ensuring safety of cycling, improving

convenience of cycling, reducing car dependency and increasing cycle-related activities in urban environment.

In terms of promoting cycling and designing MCRs in Christchurch, barriers include lack of street space, high car dependency and budget limitation. The first barrier can be mitigated or moved in the short term by applying suggested detailed design approaches. The second one can be solved by applying innovative design models in the long term. The third one cannot be directly solved by designs. More

researches and studies about reducing car dependency and attracting more investment can be conducted in the future.

There are several limitations for my study. First, I collected information about conflicts from limited number of local Press articles. I assume that, in the future, more conflicts can be reported or analyzed in more sources (such as in academic articles) to support my analysis. Second, accurate data in relation to different conflicts were missing (such as accurate number of customers pre and post cycleway construction per day). More observations and data collections should be
