A Multi-Level Perspective on Velomobility in Czech Republic

Original language description

Technological and social progress in bicycle use and vehicle versatility (smart and social innovations, namely electrification, smart infrastructure, bicycle-based logistics systems or crowd-shipping) and landscape pressures, connected to GHG emissions and changing patterns of virtual and physical mobility, have the potential to radically tip the scales of the dominant socio-technical transport regimes in personal mobility. The article utilizes a mixed-theory approach, based on analyzing the data, collected through the Czech National Travel Survey (Česko v pohybu), conducted in 2019, that feed into a multi-level perspective (MLP) model of sustainability transition pathways. The article aims to identify core regime factors of bicycle mode choice in the Czech Republic through controlling for variables such as length and time of the journeys, daily and weekly variations, activities, connected to bicycle use, trip chain structure, and socio-geographical variables, such as urban structure and density, amenity density, socio-demographic variables and others. The results of the statistical analysis form a basis for an MLP model, that analyses current and future niche, regime and landscape factors and potential pathways towards increasing bicycle mobility, motility, universality and users' diversity, concerning systemic interplays between infrastructure, users, governments and other human and non-human actors. Through identifying the possible development scenarios and viability of achieving the goals, defined in national strategies and urban policies and exploring the potential for hybridization of the components of the regime, that are the most sensitive to change, the article further proposes the space for new potential policies to support broader viability of velomobility for the general population.
