Resumo(s)
The increasing attention to provide public transports that reduce pollutant emissions from private vehicles and offer sustainable solutions for traveling around a city is a major challenge to consider when developing urban areas. Therefore, the use of a soft mobility which guides citizens into their daily routines while delivering an eco-friendly option that tackles issues related to traffic congestion and the first-and-last-mile solution is crucial to be addressed. Bicycle-sharing systems emerge as a tech-driven solution that enables operators to access essential information for system optimization in the upcoming years, thereby supporting decision-making, since it has proven to be adaptable and effective, reshaping the way people commute and interact with their urban environments. In this sense, this study intends to clarify the overall performance of Lisbon’s bicycle-sharing system (GIRA) and its overall acceptance by its citizens regarding this way of transportation by using data available from open sources. The creation of dashboards visuals allows a better understanding of the information gathered regarding the use of bicycles in Lisbon while aiding in resource allocation and providing a bigger picture of this sustainable transport which is becoming part of our lives every day. The overall analysis conducted in this study shows that GIRA is performing its job as an alternative form of transport in Lisbon.
